| I just finished wrapping my presents and writing/drawing cards for my mom, dad, and sister. They're all colourful, lots of scarves and rope involved! Pretty happy with the presents I got: not too expensive, but stuff I'm pretty sure they'll all find useful. Wrote my gf a long note in the journal I bought her. Puppy keeps devouring ornaments off the tree. Eggnog with cinammon. Giving her a cardigan I think she'll look PRETTY GREAT in. Getting a beautiful knit sweater from my grandma. Oh happy times. |

| Yes... the night Christ the super star was born that devours humanity with passion and pointless desire! Other than that... Merry Christmas everyone. I wish all of you all the best of futures and joyful moments of achievement and flourishing. |

It truly was not there for you to remotely have tendencies to like even in your wildest dreams. You, the sweetest of them all  . |

You all know it, but Christmas is just a 2000-year old remake of already existing pagan festivities. And yet another proof that Jesus Christ is a myth and never truly existed.
Happy Winter festival everyone!! |

Not related, but I love this little feud between both our countries recently. Priceless stuff. Sarkozy's a genius: whatever the subject is, he completely fucks up.
But I digress. |

Aww, go on then, to Ken as well.

Yes. I had notions of what the link was about. My original remark was a sarcastic comment on humanity's aimless passion and desire towards an empty god.
EDIT: In order to answer your remark on Christ more clearly I will say this from a wikipedia source which is not sufficient but I am also currently studying a book on Gnostic Philosophy from Ancient Persia to Modern Times. Nonetheless, here is what Wikipedia says: | Quote: | | Jesus is identified by some Gnostic sects as an embodiment of the supreme being who became incarnate to bring gnōsis to the earth.[1] Others adamantly deny that the supreme being came in the flesh, claiming Jesus to be merely a human who attained divinity through gnosis and taught his disciples to do the same.[citation needed] Among the Mandaeans, Jesus was considered a mšiha kdaba or "false messiah" who perverted the teachings entrusted to him by John the Baptist.[2] Still other traditions identify Mani and Seth, third son of Adam and Eve, as salvific figures |

I don't care if Christ existed or not, Xmas is a nice familiar time for me to get presents and get drunk with my relatives. Love you all.
