-Caveat Lector-
You have my deepest sympathies, my friend! The history of December
25th is old news. However, Christmas is a season of love and joy - and
above all sharing this love and joy with your family and friends. It
is obvious that you have no one [my sympathies to them if there are
any!] for you are far too bitter to understand these feelings. This
would be a much happier and more peaceful world, if Liberals could
learn to love instead of hate, and "live and let live" instead of
belittling everybody who disagrees with them.
Godspeed!
