Here's an extract from another sickly monologue - anyone remember "A Deck of Cards"?? It has to be the sickest record to grace the UK charts.

ok, who's first to tear this apart???

Whoa, this is bottom of the barrel time. Unless you're some kind of Scrooge who doesn't respect Christmas, I think you should remove Christianity from your list of topics of ridicule.

(Did your drain thing-a-ma-bob work in yesterdays rainstorm?)

Yes its fab. It was pissing down all afternoon and we had no problems with pooling water.

Have you got any more of those lovely word thingy's you can post, we found it really interesting

Feeling better now? had a couple of coffees yet?

I'm off to a meeting - catch you later

Sorry to interject here but Christmas is actually a pagan festival

It is? Please explain to me how Christmas is, in modern day society, a Pagan festival?

If by hammered you mean ridiculed, then no thanks.

They are a shallow bunch

It was adopted by Christianity along with the worship of trees
if one actually studies the birth of Jesus it was reckoned to be some time in October

 

[Rich]

They are a shallow bunch

searching for the truth is Shallow

Oh I see, so Christmas is actually a Christian festival today, not a pagan festival. It's just that there used to be a pagan festival at the same time of year. Sorry, you confused me when you said Christmas IS a pagan festival.

 

[Rich]

It still is a pagan festival

 

[dan-cat]

They are a shallow bunch

We do seem to be at the bottom of the barrel today.

Still if you can post responses like this after such ridicule, I'm sure we'll be back out in no time.

Thank you.

I always knew you are really just an old softie at heart

 

[KenHigg]

Ah...

Anytime either of those two chime in, I try not take it too serious... I think they're just venting anger from some other problems in their life

Just give 'em some space

Me too, otherwise I would have been convinced that saturnalia was still being celebrated by millions every year as opposed to Christmas.

 

[KenHigg]

Now just where did a Kentucky boy ever hear a word like 'Saturnalia'? It sure wasn't something we picked up in 12 years of public education in Alabama!

 

[dan-cat]

Google and a most unnatural inquisitive mind for a hillbilly

 

[dan-cat]

We also bring a tree into the house in December, but I don't pray to it. I'm allergic to the needles

Those angry anti-Christmas Brits choose to view Christmas as a paganistic commercially driven and celebrated holiday. They seem to ignore that there are still a good deal of people out there that still celebrate it for its Christian meaning. But then again I would expect much different from our aethiest friends from across the way.

Now, now, NJ...

Don't you realize that their view is from a much, much deeper and intellectually superior perspective. How dare you challenge them!
