How come nobody raves about Placide Cappeau de Roquemaure any more?

1. O Holy Night is getting a little careworn

2. Where is Rabrrrrrr when you need him? he could rave on this topic

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. Bringing up Placide was always a great way to get Dad to throw his Lillet through the window

He'd get so angry!

"Placide Cappeau de Roquemaure was an atheist!"

"No he wasn't!"

"Yes he was!"

and so on, and eventually, out the window down on to the Rue Foucault would go Dad's bottle of Lillet.

2. Why must you always make shit up, Zeb? Placide Cappeau de Roquemaure wasn't an atheist.
Hate to ruin that warm and fuzzy feeling you no doubt get from revising history and/or baiting atheists, but the story behind this carol actually proves many of your brethren were just as petty and small minded then as they are now.
