DEARLY BELOVED,

We are gathered here at this most inauspicious time of the year to evoke fond memories of the HERBAL
HORROR that us brought together to WCG.

Let us now be thankful,having discarded the chains of slavery,that we can, in freedom and peace,celebrate the former pagan festival of Brumalia.

Isn't it wonderful not to have a Rod or a Gerry uttering fatuous wafflings from the pulpit,or breathing down our collective necks through their local minions.

At this time of the year I wonder which regards himself as the IMMACULATE CONCEPTION.There are many candidates, and for that we should be truly thankful.After all,it gives us mere peasants and hoi polloi MORE opportunity to air our dissident and irreverent views.

Would anyone care to identify the
THREE WISE MEN of the CHURCHES OF GOD? This could be a DIEHL too diffi-CULT,methinks.

They of the enlightenment would probably label us the SINNER-SCHISM.

And may their YULETIDE topshelves be adequately stocked so they can destroy a few more brain cells.Oops, that was an error...what brain cells??. I must be more careful in my typing.

HAVE A HAPPY ONE!!!

For those in the States who have no access to Vermes book,and want a good Xmas read, may I suggest Raymond Brown's-- Birth of the Messiah. It is one of the definitive works on the origins, style and problems with the birth stories and the so called "prophecies" of Jesus birth.
