True. I was not trying to suppress discussion or anything else. I reread my post, however, and see how it could be interpreted as such. Apologies for that, Chasm.

"Borrowed" is when you ask someone and have an intention of giving it back.
"Steal" is when you take things without permission and kill anyone who gets in your way.
I wonder which method was more popular with xtian thugs?
Wow!! You took things like Christians choosing to celebrate the birth of Jesus on 12/25, pine trees, and certain things we do at Easter...and this leads to taking "things without permission and kill anyone who gets in your way". So Christians had to kill someone so they could celebrate Christmas on 12/25? Or somehow Christians needed someone's permission to use pine trees in their celebration? Did the first Christian's to use pine trees to celebrate Christmas steal them from their pagan neighbors? Come on, Min!
