11. Some atheists can be as dogmatic in their beliefs as
fundamentalists of all religions. I always looked upon my atheism as having an open mind to new ideas. You never know when the next scientific fact will come along to blow away all your preconcieved notions about the universe and life in general.

Decorating evergreen trees at the Winter Solstice predates Christianity by thousands of years. Why don't they call it a Yule tree? Yule basically means midwinter festival. Since the Christians have pasted their traditions on it, everyone should be happy.
