If you really love Christmas ...

Leslie and I have a holiday tradition of watching Love Actually.


Arlington: Christmas Day, 2013: Captain America’s holiday message, "Merry Christmas to those who celebrate. And to those who observe some other tradition, I wish you peace and joy and light.” makes him a traitor in the war against Christmas (at least according to some). I like it because it both honors diversity and mentions the new Wiccan grave markers at Arlington cemetery.

When I posted “The Christians and the Pagans”, Mary Jane commented that it’s her favorite holiday tune. This is mine.


My favorite Christmas carol for these lines “Fall on your knees. Oh hear the angel voices.” So overwhelmed that your legs can’t hold you up; what a glorious image.

I adore "O Holy Night" - and yes, I am an atheist. (Not that that matters, right?)

I am not a Celine dion fan - except that I do (did?) have her Christmas CD because I loved her renditions of O Holy Night and Ave Maria.

I'm certainly not Christian and I like the song.

Off to listen to Dion's version. ;-)

I've never heard the atheist's Christmas carol before. Very pretty.

Happy Holidays!

I should look at Vienna Teng's songs more closely because what I've seen I really like. ;-)
