Not really, i just use it as an excuse to get drunk and eat a lot of food.
And drinking lots of good dark beer of course
Christmas traditions also come from pagans. According to Catholic religion it's not even the right date anyways for Christ to be born.
Christmas is more about the whole "people getting together" and "humanity helping others" sort of thing than religion. So get a tree, hang mistletoe, kiss your wife, and yell ho ho ho.
It's Christmas Time!!!!
Edit: Oh and Santa would touch Jesus with teh jab and put him out in 1:52 round 1
Only the damn communists don't celebrate Christmas.
And TS the best part about being atheist is to make your own principals and not give a shit what people say. Celebrate with everyone else this time of year but for whatever reason you want. It won't hurt. Accept a gift, give one. People are rarely this generous throughout the year, it would be nice if we were but take advantage of whats here now.
Other than that it's just a day when shit is closed. I quit when I was 15, and I'm 35 now, so it's been 20 years. It feels great to be done with it.
I hate the consumerism, the religious aspect, the pressure to conform, how families get together even though they hate each other. The tacky decorations, Santa is white, etc... I hate everything about it.
Agree. I was born a Catholic but no longer attribute Christmas trees, Santa, decorations, etc. with a religious day. For me, it's just about the holiday season.Well I just see Christmas as a more cultural than religious holiday now. Funnily enough, every atheist I know celebrates christmas whereas some christians I know do not.
