    Unlike Easter Christmas has long been a contested holiday in its religous significance. Easy to extract religion from season for nonXtians, notwithstanding name

    I guess I've never really seen Christmas as a theologically imposing holiday, since many of the nominal Christians who celebrate Christmas aren't actually *theologically* Christian, so it defaults to an American cultural holiday

    some of the comments re: great piece on nonpaternity events + personal genomics seem to indicate that everyone should make recourse to a genetic counselor when surprising results (paternity, ancestry) show up. not economically feasible. already a shortage of GCs
