Usually a bloody severed goat head tends to keep people away from Christmas lights, though sometimes a little pile of teeth works as well.

I don't know. Pagans have always celebrated things like Solstice. But I get sick of hearing about how the Xtians stole this-and-that. No one stole shit. Things just changed with the times.

Our neighbors don't mess with our stuff.  When my husband cleans his guns, he does it on the front porch.  Usually 2 at a time.

It's not so much that I get mad at people who call themselves christian calling particular things christmas decorations or traditions.  I understand that early church leaders took the traditions of the area and incorporated them into the new religion to get the people to go to the church.  This happened all over the world at various times with various religions.  

I think it is funny when there is a christmas tree in a church.  I think it is funny when the pope in the vatican talks about the fir tree being a symbol of christ.  I am amused, I'll leave it to Jesus Christ to be pissed.  I don 't think this is the sort of thing he would have wanted.  Next he'll be saying easter eggs are symbols of the apostles.

My husband, who is more devious and more logical then me, sometimes, at least, wants to know if anyone else in your neighborhood has lights like that?  Maybe someone just had some burned out lights and was too lazy to go to the store and went shopping in your front yard.  Ocam's razor.

Aye, but what gets my goat is when they turn around and attack us "heathens" for doing the same things they're doing because we're not doing them with a "Jesus Seal of Approval" or something....they don't acknowledge that they borrowed/incorporated these things from other paths. It's like they think that there was a fuckin' Christmas tree in the manger with Jesus or something....hello, ever heard of a little thing called history? Be nice!

Ah, fuck 'em anyway, who needs Christianity? That religion is the ultimate mindfuck I swear.

Actually, yes. They live about a block away, and suddenly have seven lights of differing colors among their normally all-red lights.

My wife won't let me burn their house down. Pity that.

Steal them back, but replace theirs with chocolate mice or GI Joes, or something.

Or hang up "Blair Witch"- style twig fetishes.

Your wife is stifling your creativity!  She's suffocating your inner delinquent!

Dude, just go steal seven of their red lights, duh.

[Lord Trout]

They might expect that. I was thinking of stealing the steering wheel from their car, instead.
