It's a topper
OK sometimes my kids blow me away. We did our tree today. Yes this house is Atheist and we don't believe in god, but I always thought the Jehova's witnesses down the street really got the shaft with the no birthday and no christmas bullshit so I decided Atheists need christmas too, just keep the baby jesus out of for us, k?
I said we needed something on the top of the tree. We had and no I'm not making this up a pot-poree (spelling? no that word doesn't deserve to be spelled right) a pot-poree star. UG-LEEE so no. The kids agreed. So I said we need something that says we believe there is no god. I said the beagle was the ship darwin was on for his expedition. So without me knowing it my daughter went and very quietly made a ship out of paper and wrote "Beagle" on it for me. Then she wrapped it in a gift bag (this one was from safeway and contained produce earlier today) and even put some cut up papper between the gift and the top of the bag. When I unwrapped it we put it on top of our Atheist Christmas tree.
Did Adam or Eve have a navel?
