The reason for the season

Ahhh, x-mas: that wonderful season of hypocrisy for most of the civilized world!
'Tis the season when most people give more to charities and act all sweet and caring. Then you go to the store and they fight you for that last have-to-have-for-the-kid toy and about run you over with their car on your way home all while shouting not-so-jolly four-letter words. Then they go home to their family and friends and talk and sing about the "real" reason for the season which is their beloved baby jesus. Well, fuck baby jesus! Why? Because the story of baby jesus isn't even original! That's right! The most beloved story in all of christianity isn't original! Here is one MAJOR reason: The Egyptian god Horus. The stories of Horus and jesus are almost identical and Horus' story was centuries before the supposed baby jesus existed!
----> Jesus as a reincarnation of Horus
----> Jesus as a reincarnation of Mithra
That's right! The stories of Jesus and the Persian deity Mithra are almost identical as well!
And if you count that the New Testament was ordered by Constantine, the odds for the x-mas story of baby jesus being true are slim and next to negative aleph-null.
Your baby jesus had nothing to do with December 25. Two other deities claimed it before him. Also, if you read your fucking bible, the circumstances described in the x-mas stories show that he would've been born in Summer and nowhere in the bible does it mention December or December 25. Throw that bible away or burn it. It's worthless!
So, seasons greetings and happy winter solstice!
So, I'll just stick with "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Winter Solstice!"

I am so sick of seeing this kind of article! I seriously don't get it. Do US republicans and religious folk want a second Dark Ages? Both types of people are actively trying to suppress science and reason! Guess what? Humans have already tried societies dominated by religion! What did it get us? The Dark Ages? It was a horrible period of stagnant thought and no science advancement. But, for some reason, those two kinds of people want to undo about 600 years of science and return to that point of ignorant bliss. Next thing you know they will be challenging the fact that the sun is the center of the solar system, the freezing point of water, or how babies are made! How far will they go? I really don't want to find out! Religion needs to die! It breeds nothing good! The best countries to live in, with regards to tolerance, public health, happiness, FREEDOM, etc., are the least religious or atheist. The countries that trail those are all religious. The more religious, the worse it is. Wake up sheeple!!!
