Well I heard a radio interview around Christmas where he stated that he had no objection to all the glitter and tinsel side of things, he even enjoyed it, so perhaps he isn't quite the arch-rationalist killjoy that he is percieved as. I think he has perhaps painted himself into a corner with the area of imagination and spirituality and feels he has a duty to be 'Richard Dawkins Against Silliness' 24/7, which is fine if he's happy to do it and be seen that way, but it must be hard work and not a little problematic.

Thing is, I find his writing is a lot funnier and jollier in places than the severity of the message might have you 'believe'.
