Default Merry Christmas everyone!

Today we celebrate love, forgiveness, sharing, kindness and the birth of our Saviour. Merry Christmas everyone and may God bless you on this special day!

And Happy Solstice to you! (A few days late, I admit.)

The days are getting longer. Spring shall return.


Cheers,

Michael

Sorry Paul, the Lounge is a God-free zone.

This thread is going ~elsewhere~.

While I don't celebrate the purported birth of your saviour, I certainly do celebrate the human capacity for love, forgiveness, sharing, and kindness. So, thank you, PaulRichardson, for the sentiment.

And I am grateful that the Winter Solstice has come and gone. Warmer times and more sunlight are just around the corner.

Yes, otherwise there would be chaos and doubt, women and children fleeing in the street, all that stuff. Seeing as us atheists like to eat children, etc.

Merry Christmas.

This makes me wonder what the hell we atheists and agnostics in the southern hemisphere celebrate at this time of year...

Ahhh, who cares- any excuse for a piss up!

Merry Christmas to you too, Paul. How did your 15 straight hours of worship go yesterday?
