I read your "heaven without a Nintendo DS" post but didn't comment. I lurk so much on here. I think I start to comment and then get distracted or something. I don't know.

So today I went back to read the comments. And I scoffed at that person's comment about taking advantage. I do not and have never believed in god but we do celebrate on Christmas. We celebrate in our own way, without all the religious stuff. For us it's a time for family and sharing. I resent that some people think it's their day and am in disbelief that they are bothered about how other people spend it. What does it matter to them what I do for my holiday? Why is it their business and why do they think it has something to do with them? Fine. They can believe what they want. I don't care. I'm not mad that they believe in Jesus and want to celebrate his birth, as if that were really his birthday. So why does my spending it the way I want mean that I'm taking advantage? Sheesh!

Sorry. Just went off there. It just makes me mad. I have known too many religious people who push and push their beliefs on others. Why can't they just allow others to believe what they want? Why must their way be the only way?

Ok going to go read the links now.
