Would he need two presents, though? Hmmm.

Me as well, I am adept at mocking but I respect the kindness of Christ.. Heck my real name is Christian... (Italian American thing, all boys have to be named biblically, Peter, Paul, Daniel etc).
But I enjoy Christmas as well. The kids, man...You can never destroy a childs beliefs. America is lawsuit happy. We have a thing about "separation of church and state" that some folks use to kill the general happy time for everyone.

Sorry to derail
