To all the Christians who are members on this forum and those who are just visiting I want to wish you a Christ filled Christmas. We should remember that He gave up His royalty to become a man and pay the price for all mankind. That being His first sacrifice. In giving up His royalty He gave up His powers, that was his second sacrifice. He gave up being in His original forum to live through the rest of eternity as a man, another sacrifice and all this was before as a man He was a minute old. He went from setting on a throne to lying in a manger to suffer all the maladies of a human being, our King gave us the greatest gift that night by giving totally of Himself. The one thing He never gave up was His love for us, for this is what caused Him to do what we would consider "the unthinkable." So let us all remember to give thanks to the One who sacrificed for us even at His being born. May God bless each of you and may you be a blessing to God.
To my atheist friends or at least the ones who will allow me to consider you a friend, I wish you glad tidings and I hope that this time of year brings you closer to your family and friends. We all should set aside our problems and dislikes about others and rejoice in the fact that we share this world together and in the end need one another to get through a life that can be filled with many difficulties. I think we should all share in a moment of joy with the ones we love and even those who we are not so fond of, because whether we believe in God or not this is a time in which traditionally we celebrate in a humble way with our fellow man in the hopes of having a better world.
To all I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Years!

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
