Atheist Mum

Couldn't have put it better myself . Nice to know that when Muriel's not available, that someone's keeping up the good work at the Herald.

Talking of taking Christ out of Christmas, having been viciously verbally attacked last year by someone who called me a hypocrite for professing atheism but still letting my children believe the Santa Claus myth (something I was never comfortable with anyway, but I bowed to family pressure), I disabused my children of the whole notion earlier this year and while I was at it I killed off the tooth fairy and the easter bunny too. It doesn't seem to have resulted in any lasting trauma.

This year, for the first time, it'll be me who gets the credit for working and scrimping and saving all year to put presents under the tree, instead of some fat old codger in a red suit who drinks too much and eats too many pies.

Must pay more attention to Jon Stewart

the best rant I've read in ages. Keep it up Charlie.

He just keeps getting better and better. And nice to know I'm not the only one out there with a little crush.
