Whatever your religion may be, if you are the sort of extremist who seeks the death of others on religious grounds, I presume you don't seek, and you certainly won't get, good wishes from me.
Otherwise I wish you joy at Christmas or whatever date in our 2007 is the equivalent for your faith. For those like me without any faith a Happy New Year, whatever date you recognise.

I wish you great joy now and in every moment of the future.
There is much of the essence and history of many religions in your message.
It is deeply thought provoking and a major portal for a new philosophy which no doubt will wend its way along the paths already trodden by the fonders of Tao, Confucius, Mohamed, Christ, and the first thinkers in religions of India, Polynesia, South America and even the long lost tomb building farmers of our own little island.
For believers of all religions and those of none, to act justly , love tenderly and walk humbly in the presence of whatever force and wisdom keeps our universe made willl tend toward joy.

There are so many celebrations at this time of year: Kwanza, Christmas, Hanuaka, Winter Soltice, that I propose a different kind of Global Warming. A warming of our hearts. Let this be a time when we all celebrate the goodwill, love and joy that are the basis of the core values we all celebrate.
Best wishes for a warm home, full of joy and love during this holiday season!
