You don't see the benfit in everyone having a holiday at the same time then?
Oh I'm all for that, I just like winding religious people up, especialy christians who tend to see themselves as moraly above non christians but don't like to mention all the persicution, even towards different factions of their own religion, over hundreds and hundreds of years.
My favourite wind up is to ask them what happened to all the gold. When they ask 'What gold?' I say 'Y'know...gold, frankincense, myrrh?....Jesus was supposed to be a poor man wasn't he, so what happened to the gold? Infact...come to think of it, Joseph isn't really mentioned much after that bit...d'yer think he buggered of with the gold because someone else had got his wife pregnant? And that's another thing, if God made Mary pregnant, does that mean they are both guilty of adultry?'
I've never been given any explanation whatsoever for any of these questions by anyone who's knocked on my door with a big daft grin on their face and said 'Hi, can we talk about God?'
