Why?
It's easier to just go along with the act. The holiday has strayed so far from its original meaning, it may eventually just implode.
Valentin loves me.
I have a friend who is a Jehovah's Witness and he wonders why Christians do the same thing.
I don't!
Day 7250 of me begging Christians to understand that Jesus is not the patron deity of capitalism, and that Christianity did not invent winter solstice celebrations.
I prefer the Dresden Files version of Santa, that being a side gig of Odin. TO VALHALLA!
As someone who used to be facebook friends with this joker, you have to be a special kind of stupid to make McAfee look like the voice of reason in comparison.
How is McAfee a joker? Just curious.
No, he's actually rather serious. He overplays his importance to sell his book, constantly bragging about how his book "Disproving God" is required reading in University Biology Courses (no it isn't), and just plays way too heavily to the "Dudebro" crowd in general...
But...... the really shitty part is that he's a supporter of literal god damn eugenics and believes religiosity is a "gene" we need to "breed out of existence" which triggers more than a raised eyebrow on my "Yikes" scale
Euphoric may may
Coming at him with a personal insult is not the way to go about this.
The correct way is to point out that most Christmas traditions are not rooted in Christianity, but in paganism.
Exactly. What is Christian about chopping down an evergreen and put it in your house? That's a pre-christian fertility symbol to invoke the turn of the solar year and the next agricultural season.
Also, the man is an idiot.
Nah, simple facts don't work on people like Sorbo. Insults don't really work either, but at least that's funnier.
