[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're off in some of your assumptions.  I'm an atheist, I celebrate Christmas, and I spend no time making fun of Christians, or people with any other religious beliefs.  None of the atheists I know avoid calling Christmas Day Christmas.  But I don't wish people "merry Christmas" this time of year unless I know they celebrate Christmas.  I send holiday cards rather than Christmas cards because I have friends and family with varying belief systems, but I don't know of anyone who doesn't celebrate one of the several holidays this time of year.  I celebrate Christmas because it is a cherished family tradition; the tree, the gifts, music, baking, parties, family gatherings.  With all due respect, no one needs to justify to you what holidays they celebrate.[/quote]

Could not have said it any better!

Would either of you feel it was an imposition for someone new to your family wanted to pray or go to church on Christmas if they were celebrating at your house. You both would be welcomed to not join in or not go to church, of course. Or do you think I should take religion out of my holiday in my house for you, my guest?[/quote]
