Looking forward to a traditional Christmas dinner--if "traditional" includes

[Jackpine Radical]

two Jews, a Buddhist, a New Ager, a pagan/Buddhist, and a token Christian.

1. Merry Christmas

I would try to locate a good Pagan just to round it out a bit.........:toast:

2. Cannibals' Christmas?

First thing that came to mind.

3. You couldn’t find an atheist?

5. I don't believe, from what I've read here anyway,

that they celebrate anything at this time of year. Even the idea of putting up Pagan decorations like evergreen wreathes seems to be abhorrent to them.

[Jackpine Radical]

13. I think both Jews and the Buddhist

are actually atheists.

4. Season's greetings?

It would seem all of you are gathering together to celebrate the season regardless of religious traditions, like it was before there were any Jews, Buddhists, New Agers, Pagans or Christians.

8. Some atheists I know celebrate the Solstice

as an astronomical event. A lot like the pagan idea, actually. Yule (Jul) in the nordic languages is the same word as "Wheel" (hjul in modern Dan., Norw., Swed.) and memorializes the idea of the turning of the seasons.

Then there's always the idea of Festivus, which I had to look up on Wikipedia because of my lack of knowledge of anything that's been on TV in the last 40 years or so.

6. Ours is three disgruntled ex-Catholics.

10. Ah, but 'Tis the Season to be Gruntled.

I value gruntlement highly.

[Hamlette]

7. welcome. We are 100% proud atheists. And we serve "an Indian" for dinner.

Yum. I'm hosting about 25-30 for Indian food. We love Christmas.

9. seasons greetings!

two jews and two parrots had some duck for dinner....

[Jackpine Radical]

11. Glædelig Jul

or whatever works for you, Nadin.

Glad the parrots survived. Do they like duck?

12. They had leftovers today

they love meat... any meat. Vet told us conures eat a lot of meat in the wild. Nothing funnier than a nanday asking, no, begging for seconds.
