When atheists take down their Christmas trees...

Many decades ago I was called on to help the Cathedral Choir as a boy treble for the major festivals, including the Midnight (C of E) mass.

When I went back to the UK to go to a boarding school while my parents were still abroad, I was selected to be a stand-in for one of the Three Little Maids in Gilbert and Sullivan's Mikado.

The producer hoped and prayed that he would not have to use me. Why?

I was taller and heavier than all the rest of the cast. My normal role was to carry the Axe as the Mikado's executioner. Also, my voice was beginning to break. When it did, I went from a boy treble to a Basso profundo.

His prayers were answered. I didn't have to appear as a Little Maid. If I had been needed, someone else would mime on stage while I sang from the wings.
 
Most of the athesists I know call their Christmas trees 'there's no fucking god bushes'. But they're athesists, not hypocrites. I don't deny athesists their right to celebreate Christmas, in fact, me and God prefer it.

(He actually prefers God and I) :)

It would be more correct to call it a "When in Rome Tree..."


;) ;)


Don't want to end up crucified by the Christians.
This lace has more churches than bars.

What churches are you folks going to? I haven't seen any apples in my Church!

God is a grammar Nazi?
 
One would think an athesist's mouth would burst into flame just by uttering the name Christ. Or at least the head might spin around backwards. :)

No athiest would believe such silliness.
 
Why did my mind instantly go to a vagazzle shedding glitter?
 
Don't get one of those fancy store-bought trees with the glitter.

I'm still trying to vacuum it all up, but on the other hand,
the dogs are all nice and sparkly now.


:cool:
