No, I hate my post, too. Palatine Send a noteboard - 23/12/2010 05:08:46 PM
It's not directly connected to the birth of Christ.

Just because peace on Earh is unobtainable doesn't make its pursuit any less laudable. We strive to realize our ideals and, hopefully, become better people for it. If nothing else, Christmas is a good reminder of that.


I agree with the first sentence. I partially agree with the second. I mostly disagree with the third.

As for which came first, perhaps that's a discussion for another time; suffice it to say I disagree on the grounds that it depends on perspective. ;)
