3. Don't forget FSM
You do know that December 25th was the first day that a plate of spaghetti and meatballs was served up by a virgin, don't you?

9. Pretty credulous, weren't you?
"Happy Birthday Horus, Osiris Dionysus, Mithras, Sol Invictus, Attis and Jesus!"

Nice way to celebrate Christmas -- jeer at the Christians. Pity you got your facts wrong, eh?

10. Buddy, you need to study some history.
The early church coopted the holidays of the "pagans" they sought to convert as part of the conversion process. Sad for you, but that just happens to be historical fact.
