The way my wife arranged our Christmas decorations along with leftovers from Easter looks like we’re worshipping a pagan god.

A wreath made out of dry wood, pine cones, and dried pine branches, with four lit candles is on top of a red napkin, with two LED wax houses on either side, and a big glass vase is in the middle of the wreath. Inside the vase, the head of a rabbit made out of straw on a stick with a big pink bowtie. In the background, the Devin Townsend Ocean Machine poster in a frame.

@Gargron

It's the reindeer skull hanging over the mantle that does that for us.

@Gargron I think 'The Dev' is a very reasonable pagan god to worship 😉

@Gargron wenn Ostern und Weihnachten auf den gleichen Termin fällt...

@Gargron That's like pickles on vanilla ice cream.

@Gargron To be fair, most of today's Christmas is based on pagan rituals, so...

@Gargron it looks like you decapitated a rabbit.

@Gargron Mood lighting for a Night of the Lepus viewing. 😂

@Gargron

Well technically the Christmas Day festival could be classed as a repurposed occasion 😉🤷‍♂️

@Gargron few people know, but all Christians worship pagan gods (and it's preferable), so you're good. ;)

@Gargron @interestingmonkey you kind of are, because they occur on solstices/equinoxes, because the church made them at those times to make it easy to convert pagans and not make them change their holidays & celebrations. Similar to why many Christian churches are built atop pagan temples (with the added bonus that they wiped out the pagan temples).

@Gargron You are, probably. All gods are pagan.

@Gargron
Any god is a pagan god to all the other gods. 😉

@Gargron You did vet her carefully, right? :)

@Gargron in the seconds of reading the first 3 words I was sure that she must gave passed away and explaining how the image is a tribute to her

@Gargron now imagining Elmer Fudd singing O Holy Night

@Gargron Fun fact: at Penny, you can still buy Easter eggs today. Maybe you should add some to the composition.
