  • There is an odd - and misplaced - idea that atheists spend all their time trying to avoid language with Christian or religious references (even though our culture, language, and customs are predominately Christian), that they burn with rage on seeing a Christmas trees and demand all churches are burnt to the ground (and so on).

    It is of course a silly idea. I use 'Great god' in the same way you might probably use 'To hell with you', not as a literal request to send someone to the Judeo-Christian god's gas chambers, but as a culturally Christian expression, as I, like most people brought up in the UK, am culturally Christian.

    But marrying off your first born to the local goat ? And setting alight to tourists ? I think It is you who has the explaining to do, Island man.

    :)

    Note to self - Must buy more wicker.
