SNIP - a whole lotta back and forth about a Christmas carol/song...

celletiger here:
"God Rest Thee Merry Gentlemen" reminds me of the British comedian Mr. 
Bean and his hillarious Christmas television special from some time in 
the 1980s.  Relevance to the Potterverse: Mr. Bean used a widley known 
Christmas carol (GRTMG) as the background music of his programme. Just 
like JKR, religion is not the focus of the story, it merely provides a 
familiar background for readers.  Non-Christians in predominatley 
Christian countries still get the day off of work on Dec 25.  
Christmas is universal.

BTW, I want the same jumper Harry got in GOF with the dragon on it.

celletiger, new orleans, louisiana, usa: come here, you'll never feel 
as welcome anywhere else in the world.
