Bob, that is ridiculous. Those foolish atheists were purposely picking a
fight, and you know it. They might as well as gone up and poked the Christians
in the eye. You "safely assume" because that is what you want to believe. I
will agree, however, that Christmas is a Christianized pagan holiday, and that
Jesus was born nowhere near that time of the year. Even the Bible offers
evidence of this point.
