Shiny happy holiday thoughts, no?  |
Sorry, Disneyphile. I'm a skeptic, and couldn't disagree more with your assessment. Speaking for myself, I'm kind, sentimental, fun-loving and out for as many hedons as the next guy. I know many many others in the skeptical (or freethought, secular humanist, etc) movement who are also wonderful, life affirming, positive people. There are asshats in every congregation. Please don't let a few bad apples harden you. Blinking cat or no, your post is calling me stupid, insecure and vindictive, only by virtue of having been lobbed far too broadly. There are lots of us good guys out there. Some of us are skeptics. Try to meet a few. You'll be glad you did.
