[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are atheists and have a Christmas tree. [b]Christmas is mostly a cultural holiday[/b]. I know the religious people have some special attachment to it, but it's okay to not have any attachment but still engage in the merry making that goes along with it. So we have a 9-ft tall tree, an ungodly amount of lights, ribbons, ornaments, and etc. I take pride on having the best tree in the entire street. [/quote] Actually, it is not. You're an atheist celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.[/quote] Who has a better idea of what I am celebrating, me or you? I am celebrating the holiday called Christmas. It's an opportunity to spend time with the family, with activities, trips, gifts, etc. That's what I am celebrating. You may think I am missing the point by celebrating Christmas without any belief that Jesus was real, but I don't need Jesus to be real to enjoy Christmas. Just watch me. [/quote]
