Couldn't the New York Times put aside its hostility to traditional religion on Christmas Day and feature a column by a believing Christian? No, it couidn't.

Instead, believers who blunder onto the online op-ed page today are hit with a lead column entitled "Religion Without God." And just in case you didn't get the message, there's a second column called "An Atheist’s Christmas Dream."

Couldn’t the New York Times give it a rest on Christmas? Ping to Today show list.

The author of the NewsBusters item is also me, FReeper governs. I’m among many Jews with great respect and admiration for believing Christians. A very Merry Christmas to all!

And they’re safe from terrorist attacks because they’re on the same side.

“A Merry Christmas to us all; God bless us, every one!”

The progressive machine never stops hate is a tool for them they brainwash more members every day look at the last six years.

One is a kool aid drinker who still believes in the glory of socialism despite the slaughter of over 100 million people in the 20th century under that despotic goal of “redistribution” and “big government”.

Aha, so it's you over at NB that gives us "right-wingers" all that red meat!?

Merry Atheistmas....and a Happy Agnostic year. Not one dime for a NY Slimes will slip through our fingers for their fishwrap.

I cancelled my subscription to the local newspaper years ago when I looked through the entire Easter Morning edition and couldn’t find a reference to Easter, except for one opinion piece.

Dear rabid atheists, you’re gonna really, I mean really, really gonna miss christmas in the afterlife. Enjoy it while still in the vertical and upright position here on the top side of the terra firma.

Every year NYT fires 100 “journalists” an angel gets its wings.

Merry Christmas to you, my friend. Liberals have been attacking Christmas for ten years. Their poorly written ads that say “holiday” seven times, are the lib way of conveying that they believe Christmas is a profanity. I don’t know any Jews that feel that way, just leftist moonbats.

It’s a lot rarer to see the nativity or hear “Silent Night” than when I was a kid, but they cannot abolish Christmas.

I keep hearing that the NYT is having financial problems. I wonder why that is?

[Rockpile]

The pigs at the Old Gray Streetwalker at least are consistent. As always, some pigs are more equal than others.

[Hildy]

Ditto here. This Jew wishes all Christian Freepers a Very Merry Christmas!

[SaxxonWoods]

Tailoring your paper to 2% of the population?

Keep it up, NYT.

It’s the road to success!
