Celebrate Holidays when you can

We aren't strict on the actual dates when holidays are celebrated. Different people are in different situations and sometimes the holiday occurs at the wrong time. Sometimes, the day the holiday falls on isn't the best day to celebrate it. Sometimes you just have to wait for good weather or a day off. So, feel free to move the dates around to suit your schedule. Celebrating a holiday on the following weekend is often the best choice.

Newsflash

The God who Wasn't There is a really great film that I highly recommend. I saw an early screening of it at Stanford and I loved it. It goes into the early history of Christianity to determine if the character Jesus ever actually existed. I was surprised to find that much of the Jesus story was already in fiction for hundreds of years before Jesus was supposedly born. This is a documentary of how the Jesus myth was created and how little today's Christians know about the history of their own religion. Here's a really great Trailer for the movie.

Most Atheists like myself have generally believed that the story of Jesus was at least based on some real events, some popular preacher that may have really existed and was later turned into a supernatural figure by his followers. But it is becoming clear to me that Jesus is total fiction and the stories are adapted from the fiction of the time. I recommend this film to everyone. It gives you a LOT to think about.
