As I get older I get less and less tolerant of religious people. Any religion. I’ve seen too many instances where people just want to enjoy their lives only to have religious types interfere and thrust their beliefs on them. I see the Christmas season as a way to end the calendar year on an upswing, spending time with friends and family just enjoying their company and time together. If ultra religious believers want to celebrate this time of the year that way, great for them, just don’t force it on others.
