[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious here. I consider myself an atheist, but I have no problem celebrating Christmas. I see it as commemorating the birth of a very influential "person" (I put that in quotes so as not to offend anyone), same as I would for MLK Jr's birthday- albeit very different types of "celebrations". We take the kids to my parents' church (Unitarian) on Christmas Eve, mainly to spend family time together (and the kids enjoy it). [/quote] So, I'm confused. You don't believe in God, but you believe Jesus Christ was born and his presence on this Earth merits your active participation in rituals that are religiously significant (giving of gifts, etc) that relate to his birth? Say what? An athiest shouldn't celebrate Christmas. It's fundamentally inconsistent with your belief system.[/quote] http://www.essortment.com/christmas-pagan-origins-42543.html We are all just a bunch of pagans! [/quote]
