Harry,
You have stated many times you celebrate the holiday of Christmas, even
though you are not a Christian. I am sure I can Google it up very
easily.


I don't give a crap what you google up.
I'm not a Christian. I do not pray to or through Jesus, nor do I have even
the slightest belief that Jesus was who Christians claim. I certainly
don't "celebrate the holiday" of Christmas in any sort of "Christian" way.

Yes, I admire Christmas decorations, and I like a lot of the classical
Christmas music. I even sometimes go to a church for reasons you do not
know.

To be absolved of your sins you must in your heart truly repent. Otherwise,
it is just you trying to buy your way into heaven.

Christmas is just another day to me. If it falls during the week and
nothing is open that I want to or need to do, I sleep in. When I worked
for The Associated Press, I always volunteered to work Christmas Day. And
Easter Sunday. In those days, the union contract called for triple time on
those days.

Why?
