Religion has done great good for mankind. Unfortunately, religion has also done great harm to mankind. In addition to being a river of condemnation, religion also helps us mark the seasons. All religions (that are based in temperate climates) mark the birth of winter with good cheer, like Christmas or Hanukkah. Arriving with first birds of Springtime, those religions mark the death of winter, like Easter or Passover.
Passover celebrates something bad that did not happen. Easter celebrates the good that can come from bad. Both celebrate something without condemning others. They celebrate the sun on your face and the simple pleasure of being in God's world . . . which is outdoors.
So, to all the gays, adulterers, thieves, Republicans and Democrats out there, Happy Winter's Death! Now, get outside and enjoy God's kiss of sunshine . . .
