Oakley makes the shades that transform a tool.

Two things I love about them:
They look cool on me
I hate shiz in my ears and these buds don't touch my ears.

Also, now I want the new smoked frame with bronze lenses because you can see all of the electronics in them. Kind of robotic looking. But they don't have the smoked in a 1gig yet for some reason. I'll wait.

- Also, *if* Jesus of Nazareth was a real person (oddly enough, there is not one single bit of historical evidence to lend credence to his existence... other than the bible, of course. Google that, too), then he was almost certainly not born in December. Shepherds were out with their flocks at night, remember? Pretty cold to be out camping at that time of year.
- This Jesus guy, if he existed, said something to the effect of "Don't remember my birth, because a baby knows nothing. Remember my sacrifice instead." (paraphrased, of course) So why do you celebrate his birth? You're disobeying him!
- All that aside, what does the birth of your Christ have to do with decorated trees, exchanging gifts, holly, (pagan fertility rituals) and Santa Claus? (old German demon folklore)

Yeah it occurs at the same time as the pagan festival, there's no denying that.

Your second point (*if* jesus existed) is a load. He's as well documented as pretty much any other historical figure. Hitting up google won't necessarily give you the facts - go check your local library or online database.

I'd like to see the Book/Chapter/Verse of where Jesus said that. And Christians celebrate the sacrifice (easter, which is easily as commercialized as christmas), so I don't see why that matters.

The birth of Christ doesn't have much to do with any of this stuff, but a lot of Christians don't take part in the trees, gifts, holly or santa traditions.

Not that I really care about the details though - I love the Christmas season, and don't worry too much about its origins. What does it mean in the present time? Gifts, trees, holly, merry times with family ... and for some people - a time to remember the birth of christ.

Hay guyz! I disproov'd the Jesus!



I'm glad that's settled. Two thousand years of debate, and all we had to do to find the truth was google it. Time for all you silly christians to move on with your lives.

Praise Google.

Does that mean Christmas is cancelled then? Way to go Crouton

This thread is making me feel all warm and fuzzy. Maybe I *do* have the Christmas spirit!

Or I just farted.

Haha, did you try googling the meaning of life too? Either way, it's nice to know we always have the truth at our fingertips - so long as we take the time to google it.

I think the whole "Jesus never existed" thing is just a big conspiracy perpetuated by agents of Satan. These same people try to make you believe that Satan doesn't exist to cover their own tracks.

Sleeeeeep. Sleeeeeep.

Sa(n)ta = Sata(n)

Coincidence?

I don't think so

It all makes perfect sense now. His goal wasn't to give toys to all the childinz that were good all year. It was to separate out the bad ones for recruiting.

What does that say about Sata hard drives!?
"You know who else has hands? SATAN. And do you know what he does with his hands? HOLDS THINGS."

It's okay. While Christmas has been canceled, we'll have a new holiday rise up to take it's place. Atheistmas. Some of the new festive traditions will be marrying homosexuals, having abortions, burning down churches, and reading books by Richard Dawkins. It'll be a grand ol' time!

But Atheistmas is really all about being with your family. I'll be spending it at the Gombe Chimpanzee Reserve.

I hope the Sumatran Rat-Monkeys don't crash the party!

Hey, Im so glad I missed this thread.

All this talk of cancelling Christmas on account of history, makes the baby jebus cry , dontcha know

Says the person who corrupts the word "messiah."
