I LOVE Christmas. I am not a Christian, I do not believe that Christ is what the religionists claim. When I celebrate Christmas I am celebrating the fact that I have the friends and family that I have and life is joyous.
I'm already starting to feel normal

Today was my 1st time EVER saying
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
That is a small step, but it just makes me feel like I'm OK...not getting struck by lightening or anything. -hahahaha

Thanksgiving is wrong because in the Garden of Eden, Satan spoke through a turkey and deceived Eve bringing sin and death to all humanity. So, Turkey Day is as evil as Halloween. Really.
