Given that almost all the trappings and traditions of our commercial Christmas have pagan roots, how many Christians are forgoing these modern secular stylings in favor of a purely religious observance?

Three. TOASTER: Would you like some toast? LISTER: Uh-Uhm. TOASTER: Some nice hot crisp brown buttered toast? LISTER: Uh-Uhm. TOASTER: You don't want any toast then? LISTER: No. TOASTER: What about a muffin? LISTER: Nothing! TOASTER: You know the last time you had toast? 18 days ago. 11:36, Tuesday the 3rd. Two rounds. LISTER: Ssshhh! TOASTER: I mean, what's the point of buying a toaster with artificial intelligence if you don't like toast? LISTER: I *do* like toast! TOASTER: I mean, this is my job! This is cruel! Just cruel! LISTER: Look, I'm busy! TOASTER: Oh, you're not busy eating toast, are you? LISTER: I don't want any!! TOASTER: I mean, the whole purpose of my existence is to serve you with hot, buttered, scrummy toast. If you don't want any, then my existence is meaningless. LISTER: Good. TOASTER: I toast, therefore I am. LISTER: Will you shut up?!

I know of a few churches in my area that forbid anything more than what they see as "Christian." That is, no tree or presents. Actually, I think there are still presents, but they are given in a different way. Anyway, these are the same churches that consider Halloween to be evil. On Halloween night, all the kids who aren't allowed to have candy go to church for some just-as-fun foot washing. It's great...

Hee hee, I don't know any of those, either. Of course, many of the more devout Christians tend to avoid me. I used to know a few Witnesses that did not celebrate Christmas in anyway, but I haven't seen them in years.

I'll take the modern secular stylings of my pagan roots. I might even have some cards printed for that.
