The church holds us to ransom - fact. Everyone loves "that christmassy feeling" and spending lots of credit-card money on toys/booze/food/whatever.

The list goes on. Even Tony Blair, when backed up against a wall on the issue of "so where *exactly* are these Iraqi WMD's that we sent people to look for and die in the process?" His answer? "God will be my judge", the perfect "get out of jail free" card.
WARNING: at midnight of the Winter Solstice I shall been buring wax effigies of any **** who cuts&pastes whole swathes of any religious book in response to this - your names will be attached to the cute little dolls)
