Penni -- I alluded to, if not describing in the detail you did, the fact that Christianity borrowed from other religions and observances. The "new" has a habit of borrowing from the "old". Well documented. I expressed nothing other than acceptance of this.
As I have said repeatedly, I don't object to Del affirming his belief. I object to him (or anyone) trashing mine.
Actually, I suspect if Del, instead of trashing Christianity, had made pointed reference to Jews, Muslims or Rastafarians he might not be enjoying the warm support he seems to have from some Feelies. In fact, he might find himself Bobbed.
If, as you suggest, heated religious debate is a tradition at Feelies, I don't see why anyone would object to my remarks.
In any case, I'm not debating Del about religion; only pointing out what I consider rudeness.
A hearty Ho, Ho, Ho to you,
