I think pan it doing fine. It's his sort of holiday now after all. Hecate probably gets off on the whole increased suicide rate and general mopiness that the holiday induces in some.

I have to agree with Volourn.  Bioware is pretty much dead now.  Deals like this kills development studios.

If those statues are anything to go by it's the Satyr women who are pleased :thumbsup:

 

Although they have a thing for human women.

I love Christmas. Watching my daughter wake up and tear out of her room to go get her presents under the tree does my heart good.

Also, I have a kitten on my knee sleeping right now, so Christmas is fine and dandy again.

 

So cute!

Dec 25 was probably nominated to coincide (or hijack if you will) the Roman pagan holiday of Saturnalia. Of course, almost every culture has some sort of Winter Soltice celebration, i.e. Yule in the Teutonic traditions.

 

The idea of the Body of Christ celebrating a holiday that was not on Sunday was hotly debated by the Early Church Fathers and, later, was debated during the Reformation. The Calvinist communities of the New World went out of their way to avoid recognizing the day as anything other than a normal business day.

 

But certain things happened to turn Christmas into a major Western holiday:

 

* Hessian mercenaries were seen celebrating it in the New World during the Revolutionary War.

 

* Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol did much to make it pop in English-speaking countries.

 

* Coca Cola launched a "Santa Claus" ad campaign in the 20th century.

 

* etc, etc

 

I'm not suggesting that people did not celebrate the Birth of Christ, but they did it on Advent which is always on a Sunday.

I wish we didn't have to have Christmas decorations, songs and all that rubbish for weeks and weeks in advance. One week's preparation is enough, and any public mention of Christmas before December 18th should be banned and subject to heavy fine. It would undermine the materialistic commercial aspect of Christmas, leaving secularists free to move about in public spaces without religion in our faces all the time, and true Christians would also be happy because it would concentrate minds on the spiritual rather than commerical aspect of Christmas.

Hate Christmas so much!

One year I got a dog for christmas

And I gave it to the boy next door

Then I gave him my bike and my mom

Humbug
Child you hate christmas... but you plan to be a priest.... I see a logical fallacy in that. You're supposed to revere Christmas because it's when Christ your savior was born...

Why? My plans are roughly the same as Eru's(cloth and all), and I too hate 'mas. I hate what it stands for today. THe shopping sprees, the adds, the rushes and the ever-present 'mas-songs, which'll clot every station and store and monger. THe whole, "happy happy buy buy"-mentality. It being the messiah's b-day is a different thing altogether.

The messiah was born? :huh:

 

Well, whatdyaknow?

 

I think they should move the birthday back to the original day, in January. :("

I like it because I get to buy gifts for everyone, and wake up really early with a great sense of anticipation.  I'm sorry to hear some of you don't have that magical feeling, but hopefully we all have some special holiday.

I like it because I can walk around outside without all the crowds of stupid people.

Is that really necessary? :)

 

Btw, I love Christmas. Vacation, you know? So I can sit at home and do nothing. Damn it! Now I am seriously depressed...

Just picked this up in history class.... Jesus was a guy who was born to a family of middling means, he wan't born as Jesus, he was a jew, he was baptized by john with the name Jesus. He actually had some claim to royal lineage, and he was born in 3 BCE (or BC as those of you christians call it)

Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

The thing I like about Christmas is that its the one time all my old friends go back to my hometown and we get to catch up with each other.

People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.

Christmas blows. If my family didn't celebrate it I would have nothing to do with it.
