[Milzy]

Are you farking kidding me?
You know, you're not a knobber as you suggested earlier, you're a judgemental daffodil.

I only half agree, I can be judgemental please forgive me.

It's almost as though the Jeremy Kyle show has landed on Earth.

Jerry Spring was much better.

The OP has missed his calling.

He'd have made a top notch religious zealot.

I didn't have my daughter christened. It wasn't because of ethical reasons,more the cost. 150 quid for 10 minutes work with no overheads!!! You can do one i thought!

I am not relgious at all but I like churches. I attend weddings and christenings at churches. Its not about what I believe. Its about joining in a celebration with friends and family.

I wonder if the OP buys his family Christmas presents?

This has more to do with the brother in law than religion, I think.

So you're an atheist - but you still care about the sanctity of marriage. Top trolling.

Do buy presents because Christmas is hard to escape from. Plus it doesn't matter about marriage etc.

So Christmas is OK because you buy presents.

Marriage is OK because you are married.

But christenings are not OK. But your child is not christened.

You can see how this looks?

I just let people do what they want to do and enjoy family gatherings. But this does appear to be more of a brother in law problem than a religious problem.

No because like others on here I won't attend any christenings what so ever. Even if my favourite pro riders invited me I'd have to decline.

Practically nothing in the European celebration of Christmas has it's origins in Christianity. Atheists can totally take part.

This is a good thing, I know a few muslims who exchange presents on the 25th of December.
