I think if you're Atheist you shouldn't be able to celebrate holidays like Christmas or Hanukkah.
I think his point is that it's just as Christian as it is atheist or any other religion that isn't pagan.
Although I'm pretty sure nicknitro was joking? Could be wrong. The interest makes sarcasm difficult.
Eh, Christmas is as Christian as a mosque.
In other words, it's not Christian at all. .
Exchanging gifts is a common activity at festivals, and I doubt it really has much to do with a baby born in the garage of a Middle Eastern motel many years ago.By all means don't work. I didn't go to school in Jersey on Jewish Holiday's and I'm not Jewish. Enjoy those corporate perks lol
Just don't exchange gifts Christmas morning dammit! I should go on Fox and back the war on Christmas...and include Atheists as well, buying up all of our gifts......imagine how much less hectic black Friday would be....people probably wouldn't get stomped to death. I'm trying to save lives here.
To me Christmas has become far too commercialized to have any substantial spiritual significance. For me it's just thanksgiving with presents AND food lol. But it is definitely not nearly as "Christian" as Christians think it is.
Bingo.

Christians should stop trying to ruin everyone's Yule festivities with their misplaced sense of ownership.
You know what sarcasm is right?
Christianity being associated with Christmas has been going on far longer than you and I have been alive so I would expect you to at least be used to the association by now. I'm really sorry our Church going effects your pagan rituals. Unless you're some pagan God sent down to tell us all whats what........but you couldn't be because Atheist's don't believe in any God, pagan, Christian, or the like. So you really just hate Christians and will take any chance you can get to show us how much you disagree with our views.
P.S. the "baby born in a garage of a Middle Eastern motel" comment was cute.
Kwanzaa makes Christmas look like a well thought out holiday.
Socialism = communism and "capitalism" = Christianity according to various people and governments in the US.
