Stephen Slade, of Roanoke, doesn't care how we Atheists cope during the holidays because we're a minority and we don't matter. The majority, good Christians all, should not (and apparently do not) concern themselves with what minorities face at any time, and especially at this time of year. What a good, loving Christian Slade is. I bet he still grumbles about how a minority got the right to vote, too.
Ron Penland is concerned because Laura Miller continues to live in a childish fantasy and an "admitted" non-Christian (she liked Narnia, which was written by a Christian as a metaphor for Christianity.) He then tells us how he believes "God the father looks down at us with a smile on his face when we respect and honor the birth of his son." I love when Christians complain about other people living in a childish fantasy world. Except that I keep having to repair my irony meter.
I'd make a comment on J.H. Woolwine's letter, but honestly I can't make a bit of sense of it. Does Woolwine have a point? The letter is too disjointed to tell. I know the editors make up the titles for the letters, and in this case the title had very little relevence to the ramblings of the letter, as there is certainly no historic evidence of a "creator", much less its importance to anything or anyone.
Losing Bill Richardson is not good. He ran afoul of the Clinton machine for picking Obama. Losing him does not speak well of the Obama team. Moderates were satisfied with that pick.
How much influence does the Clinton team have with the Obama group? Hopefully, quite a lot.
