The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Four decades before he moved into the "accidental suicide" business - allegedly - Phil Spector released a Wall Of Sound album of popular xmas songs. My sister and I grew up with this and practically wore it out playing it over and over and over. Even though I couldn't be less in the xmas spirit if I were boiling in brandy sauce with a candle up my arse, it still evokes once-happy memories.
For best results, crank that volume up to eleven and beyond.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I'm fairly certain I posted this last year. So it's a Jesus-y song, so what? Terrific musicianship and enthusiasm. Love this one.

A much-loved Christmas classic, this one...
