Wiccans and Christmas Carols

Wiccan Wonderland The Christians adopted Pagan traditions in an effort to convert people. Is this an example of Wiccans doing the same thing back or just good, old-fashioned filk?

Sounds like filk to me. Are you the same Storm Bear noted at the bottom of the lyrics?

Although I suport all things satirical, sarcastic & sardonic, this is a bit obvious and derivative to stand alone, so it's a little weak for a post.

Let alone a double.

A little from column A, a little from column B, but at least it gives me something to sing tomorrow!

Ah, the shameless tradition of self-linking. At least we can saw this one was relatively harmless though.

Christians and Pagans get my equal contempt. Especially when they self-link.

What's filk? Should self-filking be frowned upon? I don't think that poem is going to convert anyone. I don't think it's going to entertain anyone either...

My Christian brother and I liked it so much we started having solstice celebrations.
