Apparently Christmas lights are pagan.

~blinks~

Um... The whole Christmas ritual as we celebrate it is pretty pagan, really. And seeing as the roots of Christmas go back to early Christians co-opting Saturnalia to get more followers... Yeah. It's pagan. So what? I'm not a JW, so I really, really don't care.

That said, it's finally starting to feel a bit more like Christmas around here. Having the (pagan) tree up with the lights aglow and the days cold helps with that feeling, I think. Too bad it's going to warm up again for Christmas... :-(

No, you're an idolater, duh. ;D (Or so I was informed by my neo-pentocostal acquaintance when I told her I was Catholic.)

neo-pentocostal? Just plain old Pentocostal isn't good enough?

That's sort of like being accosted by Christian zealots asking me if I've been born again. Pardon me for getting it right the first time!

~High fives the fellow Catholic schoolgirl and goes off to decorate my pagan tree.~
