In answer to your question about atheists and intolerance, I make the observation because the "New Atheists" have made their religion entirely an attack on Christianity. It's most aggressive and hateful during Christmas. Traditional atheists have a more respectful approach stating there is no god and don't any of the rest of it a thought. <br />Appreciate your informing us of your Christmas tradition. Very cool.Steven Dexterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15299032034330006689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1750536989922769009.post-29099128804126737442011-12-12T04:38:58.271-08:002011-12-12T04:38:58.271-08:00Thank you for nice article.

I§m living in Czech Republic, one of the most atheistic countries in the world and myself being an atheist.<br /><br />We celebrate Christmas as a nice tradition and gifts to children are given by "Jezisek" - small Jesus, with reminder of gifts given to him in Betlehem. People think here, that Santa Claus is American culture import and dontl like it very much either.<br /><br />Anyway, I don't understand, why you connect atheists and intolerance? It is only downside for me in otherwise nice and informative post.<br /><br />SlavekAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
