Website details why, how art basher destroyed Chagoya print
LOVELAND - A website purportedly run by Kathleen Folden, the Montana truck driver who destroyed a lithograph using a crowbar at the Loveland Museum/Gallery last year, describes how she bought a crowbar at the Flying J in Cheyenne and asked God if she was "the right person for the job."

I've always celebrated Christmas but now...I don't know?

I love singing Christmas songs be it Santa or just songs about the season.
I also always enjoyed saying Merry Christmas because I never thought of it as "Happy Jesus' Birthday" it was more like "Happy Day of Presents!!"
I was never really a Christian but my folks and siblings are.
I still want to go Christmas shopping as a family.
I don't want to be outcasted....plus they still don't know I'm atheist.

Christmas was originally a pagan celebration of the winter solstice. Most symbols and practices associated with Christmas are of pagan origin - holly, ivy, mistletoe, giving gifts, decorated tree, flying reindeer. December 25th was a date recognized throughout the Roman Empire as the birthday of various Pagan gods. Western church leaders have attempted to ban these celebrations several times over the centuries. As pagan peoples were conquered and subjected to the church between the 7th and 10th centuries, they continued to observe their pagan rituals and celebrations. The Church forbid such practice under penalty of death, but they continued nonetheless. The Church finally capitulated with the practices morphing into a celebration of the birth of Jesus, yet maintaining elements of the pagan celebration of the winter solstice. Enjoy the season and it's fine to let others have their own fantasy, as long as they don't use it to "beat you over the head." You are smart enough to see their folly. Stay above it, their belief has no consequences at all for you.

Chris Norman with a wonderful interpretation of Mary's Boy Child and clips from the movie The Nativity.????? It seems that the film would be made for the song. No wonder both have the same historical story. A gorgeous film that tells the story of Mary and Joseph to the birth of Jesus Christ.

Putting the christmas holiday season into proper perspective. Listen to the song. It has a great message. Interesting facts: * A portion of the procedes of CD sales will go to Christian Family Services in St. Louis and the good work they do finding homes for children in need! • The man playing piano in the video is Becky's father Steve who is also the main writer of the song and is the pianist on both recordings! * Gloria Estefan's bassist, Jorge Casas, is the basist on this recording!

What did you get for christmas?!?

This is what I got for Christmas:

I got 2 pairs of pants, a fancy shirt, several pairs of underwear (thanks, mom), an Al Franken book, an iPod car charger, a Payless gift card, toe-socks, Union Jack boxer shorts from London, 4 Doctor Who buttons, the DVD "Grandma's Boy", and... that's all, so far. I'll be getting one more later.

When someone says that Jesus is equal to Zeus and FSM, is that a lot like...?

...a child opening a present and being dazzled and awed by the wrapping paper instead of the gift inside, which was purchased with a great price?

So now you've stopped trying to abuse logic and moved on to pure personal attack?

A powerful and beautiful video to be enjoyed all year long and especially celebrated at Christmas and Easter. The film Clips are from the movie "Jesus of Nazareth" with Actor Robert Powell playing Jesus. This particular Youtube edited version is wonderfully created by Maria Bianca Graphics (Youtube Channel is mariabiancagraphics). It is set to the beautiful music of "Mary Did You Know" sung by glorious voice of Clay Aiken from his album Merry Christmas With Love. The video depicts Mary and Joseph, the birth of Jesus, and the many miracles He works and the deliverance of mans sin through His death.

The Christmas Debate: Why We Do And Must Celebrate Christmas
We hear it each year all year round, but especially around this time: people, non-believers, some of who pretentiously pose as believers claiming to seek the truth, drumming into our ears why we should not celebrate christmas because it is of pagan origins and is not biblical.
