Pagans bashing Christians.

So in another post, sidhebear asked me a damned interesting question after eltanin brought up pagans bashing christians and i responded. my thanks to him for provoking the hell out of me and making me think.
the majority of my pagan friends wouldn't be caught dead
idly bashing christianity or other religions and this isn't the first
time you've brought this up. Who is it in this group that keeps doing it?

and the truth is that i had never really thought about it before. and wasn't aware that i had said anything about it to him. i was just aware of feeling left out and sad (in fact sat. night was the first time i realized other christians were feeling the same way i did). but i put together an answer that was too long to post and so it is going here instead.

( in defense of christianity(and a little of my own frustration) )

this weekend

was completely lovely.
friday i talked to my parents who i miss very much. and i started a new knitting project because i wanted something mindless.

lonewolfnight enjoyed his birthday party greatly. many people attended, but it never got to be a huge unmanagable group. boyd came and sang and played guitar, many friends who rarely gather got to see one another, we never ran out of food, mass quantities of quality irish whiskey were consumed, fire was blown and flaming poi spun outside for everyone's enjoyment and conversations ran to all manner of things one is not supposed to discuss in polite company. i had a great time and i hope everyone else did too.

today daylight savings time knocked me for a loop and i slept through church. we were supposed to foam the entryway with insulation, but it rained hard all day, making this impossible. we went out to lunch, saw ice age II (which i liked better than the first one because that detestable sloth character talked less) and then went over to shaun and thistle's and played board games.
delightful.

(no subject)

another truly delightful, if somewhat embarrassing day.
i woke up later than i meant to (stupid circadian rythms) and went to go meet pixiecup at barnes and noble.
it was lovely to see her and we had a nice chat. the problem is that i met her there around 2pm. i'm not sure what time she left. i promptly got sucked into a book and they kicked me out at 10pm.
sigh.
addictions are hard.

i will reply to your interesting responses. i promise. but not tonight.
