I generally post from an atheist perspective. This post is no exception.
To the Christians I have debated with, thank you for your courtesy when I have challenged some of the ideas that are dearest to you.
To the Christians of the past, thank you for the cathedrals, churches and art that have filled my mind with awe and with silence.
I still hope, before I die, to sit in darkness at matins, in a remote stone cloister, as the monks enter in procession, carrying candles, singing something like this:
And to everyone who reads this blog, have a very Merry Christmas, and the best of all possible worlds in 2009.
