@Canageek :( I'm sure you didn't though; sounds like a situation where he was juggling some life stuff and that's just how it rolled.

@ruth this is the scariest recipe I've read in a long, long time.But it was the photojournaling of it all that made me cry.

@Canageek I think what is needed here, is caucus members who are not some flavour of Westernized Christian or were not raised in societies where such was the unquestioned norm.@DialMforMara 's statement cuts to the chase.

@Canageek @DialMforMara Darn. It sounds like the ones who are there are better at killing holiday spirit than boosting it.

@Canageek Maybe if the questions you've worked up are framed as 'other cultures' holiday traditions'? The religious aspect, so far as the questions are concerned (if I remember them aright) is limited to how the holidays are named.

@Canageek I mean, the questions don't address creeds or beliefs.

@Canageek Honestly, it sounds like you've done your due diligence and it should be on them to support any further objections with actual facts.

@Canageek I read the questions thread a day or two ago when you were working out the questions, and didn't see anything that seemed questionable to me; but then, I don't fall into any of the groups you were concerned about so my POV is not relevant.On Buddhist holidays... there are a number of sects, and 'holidaying' is not really a big thing; I mean, I celebrate holidays, but it's not because Buddhist, if you get my meaning. There's Vesak, but it isn't winter. BUT (1/ 2)

@Canageek if you look on the internet for 'buddhist holidays) you will find a number of festivals celebrated in Asian countries where the population identifies as Buddhist, and which are some of them located within a particular Buddhist tradition. (2/2)

@Canageek well, if it MUST be fresh... :) There's a good deal of rock talk in a novel by Nevada Barr, 'Blind Descent' where passages are formed in a cave by water action, and also much climbing in those passages. Not sure how much time/energy you want to invest, though.

@Canageek psh. details, details! :) Good luck with the worldbuilding, though, it sounds neat. I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

@philnelson @Canageek @DialMforMara also BBEdit. It's a cool feature, and easy to overlook. I keep forgetting about it.
