i find it highly amusing with all these people and the "merry christmas" hooha this year. do they even know the history of christmas traditions? or are they only concerned in the christian ideals? i told the story of mesopotamians and then of the europeans winter solstace and people just look at me funny. they don't want to know. all they want is

funny thing is....my boss and i were just talking about this topic not even an hour ago.

we came to the same conclusion...almost all (if not all) religions have a holiday (note: holy day) at the end of december. Let's be inclusive people ;-)

that's why i wish people happy holidays. one christian that wouldn't open his mind was wished "jo saturnalia!" he did not enjoy in the least.

You nutty pagan

I was just talking about this with a friend. How there are so many pagan rituals wntertwined in our holiday rituals, and how frickin clueless we are about it.

This is what I tend to call 'non-news'. The only people I know who give 2 rats ass about the whole thing, also ask me if I've gone to Jesus. Never mind about including my pagan sister, my muslim friends, jewish, atheist whatever. What does that say about the notion of why this is news? Hallelujah, lets burn us some heathens! Jesus loves you, I think you're garbage wrapped in skin! Happy Holidays? Fuck you, Satan Claws

If there are SOOO many people pissed off about this crap, then why-oh-why do I not know a single one of them?

Because NO ONE REALLY CARES.

Thank you, I enjoyed reading this!
