grumble.

I'm not impressed by people rambling on about how Christianity "stole" Christmas.
Hush now.
"Pagans" (as a unified, worldwide, catholic body of Everything Right and Good in the World Before Jeeezus Broke their Perfection) stole their stinkin' tree from the mole-worshippers of Guinea.

The Greek's heading to San Antonio for a week - she's on the plane now.
So expect More Surly.
Rawr!

Taken, yes, but it's old hat to know the symbology, timing, etc. is from older or different traditions, as if this invalidates squat. People love to say "stolen" because of particular axes to grind, and as if Xianity was the first or sole group to do so, or as if it was inherently wrong.
