I have been receiving some what regular e mail correspondence from a fairly religious conservative.
The E mails are filled with hate and disgust.
I am saddened by that.
That was never Christ's message (even for those who do not believe he was anything, the message still stands).
As commercialized as Christmas has become, as watered down as it has become (it is after all a "stolen" holiday, like Easter, from pagan ritual days), it is above all a time of celebration, of Joy, of peace.
Anyone who uses the name Christian should be in that place of proclaiming all the things we are thankful for, not the things that make us mad.
There is enough anger in the world as it is.

I thought xtianity was based on the belief that god sent his only son to stop the gays and the jews killed him before he finished smiting the homos and then he became a zombie.
Things that are not good should be addressed, I feel, but in an appropriate manner:) Sorry, all that anger is coming to you!
Grant - that may be what some people want you to believe, but at least you do not want it, obviously.
It is too easy too hate and too hard to live with. May we all remember that love is what we are all about.
Ok, is Grant serious?
Tell me Grant is not serious.
'Cause IF Grant isn't serious, I might be in love.

I agree there is enough anger in this world. I try to stay away from angry people as they have a toxic effect. Thankfully there are people like you who are good-hearted and appreciate everything.
It's sad when non-Christians live more of Christ's message than a lot of so-called Christians. I understand and agree with everything you've said on this post. Wish it were different.
Grant is being sarcastic, is dealing with health issues in the way he can and generally seems fairly liberal. I think he believes in zombies tho...
Well said.
