    Finally-free you said "This is a public discussion board, and you have no authority over it. You have none over me. You never could." So why would you make such a stupid comment earlier saying that "No One Cares What I Think." Like I said before, if you dont care what I think (you said that, not me) then get off this thread and dont come back to it. Thats the logical thing to do!! You set yourself up and you didn't think I would respond! And I could care less what's "in your book"!! lol

    AK-Jeff - you said "Why to this." Dude WTF are you talking about lol. If you dont want to read previous post to have a jist of what we are talking about presently then DONT DO IT dummy!! It makes sense to do that so you wont bring out points that have already been brought out!!

    Granny - If you notice from all my posts, I never steer my anger on anyone unless they offend me. I would NEVER talk to you are many others on here even if we think differently on matters. You are always respectful to my posts and I to yours. You are my granny!! And yes I do have alot of hate towards religion but im sure its about the same amount of hate most people on here have towards the Watchtower Borg.

    Lovelilly, MrsJones &Finally-Free, if you honestly go back to page 2-4 of the posts on this thread, you will see how many went from answering this question to condemning me or sending angry posts because I said that "lying to their kids about Santa seems wrong." Darn, didn't yall use to be JWs. Didn't yall use to think it was wrong to lie to kids like that. God hates a lier and all that stuff. As I said, I was looking for justification to celebrate Christmas this year and alot of people pissed me off by their post just because I stated my opinion so I retaliated. Think about it, im Agnostic but it is still hard for me to ever give blood, celebrate Christmas; other holidays. I shouldn't even care but I still do for some reason! Truly sorry if I offended you but it is no reason to attack me on here. Also if non of you are self-righteous Christians and can accept that passing down the Santa story is a lie(thats just what it is) NOTHING I have said this whole time should have offended you!

    I'm not offended, like I said before I was raised one way and decided that way was hooey and now celebrate Christmas. Won't be guilted about it, won't be guilted about letting my children believe in Santa which they eventually grew out of none worst for the wear. I have yet for any of my children to come up to me and ask why did I let them believe in a make-believe person like Santa. Hell I might as well not let them ever watch the Disney Channel, Nick, or the Cartoon Channel if I were so concerned in my children believing in the lies of make-believe.

    Be justified in the fact that since you are out of the bOrg you can decide whether or not if you want to celebrate Christmas but leave the bOrg habit of condemning those who do back at the hall where it belongs.

    but what is wrong with pagan???

    Excellent question. I was born and raised in a large city, so I am not pagan.
    But I have no problem with those that are a bit "rustic."
