Nice. Are the progs and leftists going to demand God take that tree down?

I noticed this:

"Some stars in the cosmic Christmas tree are only one-tenth the size of our sun, while others are several times larger.
Doesn't that UPI News writer know the correct terminology is "ten times smaller"?

Just kidding. It is refreshing to see a writer get it right and say "one-tenth." (pet peeve of mine)

That’s a pet peeve of mine as well. 10 times smaller? What the heck does that mean?

Thanks for translating that moronic manner of describing different sizes.

Could never figure it out previously!
