Dead on right!!!
Let's face... nowadays anything that'll give you a 3 day weekend or just time off from work will be appreciated.
I can remember that Dave Chapelle once said, in responding to the Arizona rejection of celebrating Martin Luther King Day, "Hell, as a black man I'd even celebrate KKK day, if it meant I'd get a 3 day weekend, just don't expect me to show up to the meetings...".

Religion might suck, but one thing is a bonus... lots of reasons not to go to work.

Off-topic.
What exactly is Xtians.
Is short for Christians? Or have a different meaning.
I'd imagine it is that same as Christians, but one never knows for sure.
Reminds me of how I used to annoy people who would wear a large cross around their neck. I used to take the opportunity to ask "hey, what's the "T" stand for"?
The looks you get are priceless!

I am not one to attribute godlike qualities to things that I am unable to understand. I may never be in the position to understand certain things, but I am not about to create an anthropomorphic deity out of my short-commings. I wish not to errect a monument to my own personal ignorace and demand that others worship this proxy of ego. - MoS
