Reply to E Mills on Christmas Myths

Posted 2nd January 2015 to the Southland Times Invercargill NZ



In Response to E Mills Letter to the Southland Times 2nd Jan 2015
I must say even though I quoted John Cleese I didn’t really expect the Spanish Inquisition!
E Mills might look out for them though as E Mills not only “Dissed” the Pythons but the Pope as well.
I don’t have Gods email and he has no complaints department though obviously several People in Invercargill speak on his behalf and as I have noted. So I would Like to complain to them about the lousy workmanship we have to put up with, Feel free to add to it feedback:  like Yes the Human Eye is complex but other Animals got better ones and they don’t have to wear glasses when they get old. Or Why does all the Rain Fall in the Ocean where there are no crops? Why didn’t Jesus know English or at least Write Latin ?
What’s with all the Religious Turf Wars. When is the New 2K Bible out. Or my favorite: Why do you need money from Poor People when you already own everything by default..? And... if EVERYTHING is part of a great plan than why is E Mills so unhappy with it?

Southand Times - the Christmas Myth

I read laments that people have forgotten the true meaning of Christmas these days
Yes it once was a Solstice Festival to mark the turning of Winter on the road to spring.
If we want to celebrate this we should do it in July. the Jesus story is nice but hardly based on
specifics, even the Pope says we take it to literally in fact like Santa Claus Jesus just wants to know if your
naughty or nice and as John Cleese Pointed out All the Smartest people never take things literally so Pope Frank MUST be smart and you CAN celebrate Christmas in Winter and it won't bother Emperor Constantine as he is way too dead to care. After all it is all just an uplifting fairytale mainly for Children and silly adults just want to spoil it by being far too literal and way too materialistic!
BTW Why can't we celebrate the Planet? it was been very good to us so far.
