I spot no lies.

Yes. I mean its all up to them.

[Grumpy Gills]

Should Christians be celebrating a pagan holiday is the real question

[Papa2Cyrus]

No. Interested fatties.

Decorating for Christmas is my favorite thing to do, and I'm an atheist.

I hide the religious ornaments on the back of the tree and don't put out the manger.



But no, we shouldn't be able to celebrate Christmas. We should sit in the dark locked in our rooms while everyone we know and love enjoys a nice meal and give one another presents. We should not be allowed to listen to or enjoy Christmas music, and should go out of our way to avoid hearing it. We should be excluded from all public activities that involve celebrating Christmas (i.e. work parties, school activities). We should all be Scrooges and Grinches for the entire winter season.

Christmas is a capitalist celebration of mass consumerism masquareded as a forced bonding ritual between family members. Of course they can.

Expose the conspiracy!


All of that on top of the fact that historically, Jesus wasn't born in December and they just chose the day for his birthday because they wanted people to celebrate Christmas instead of some other religion's holiday that took place at that time of year.

Pretty much.

Tho personally i don't really celebrate it but i still love me some gifts

[Sky Engineer]

The actual Christmas historically isn't even on 25th December

[Sky Engineer]

And it's a pagan tradition

[Sky Engineer]

The real cultural appropriation

[LoKoPaNdA]

I'm agnostic/atheist w/e and I celebrate it cause it's fun and I see it as a secular tradition even though it really isn't
The message is positive anyway (redemption for humanity, good deeds, etc)

[iHype.]

Lols, let's not. 90% of people who celebrate Christmas don't think about Jesus that day or pay him tribute. So let's not tell people who don't believe in Jesus they can't celebrate it.

It's all about family-time and gift-giving. If someone was raised on the Holiday, and still wants to take that time to do the activities (which are non-religious) that come with it every year, then they can.

It's not like it's some Holiday where it's strictly revolved around celebrating the religion.

Its not from a pagan tradition. The bible doesnt lie

[princedonte]

Yes Xmas is about fighting people for a 10 dollar toaster made in China. If there was a God he would have destroyed this world along time ago. God is dead and you know what killed him his own followers.

[Mexi]

Halloween is a pagan holiday involving pagan deities and tons of people celebrate that who are not pagan

So

[Tropez]

Yes. Christmas isn't a religious holiday anymore.

Its a capitalist celebration.

[Haus]

I started realizing the past couple years that it's hypocritical of me to celebrate and accept gifts for it, but I'm not going to pass up on free **** especially now that I'm a college student

Besides it's not like most people do anything for it that's actually religious.

[Dessy Fenix]

Why not? (Almost) Everyone basically get a day off and it's basically a chance to hang with family and friends so might as well take it.

[Achilles.]

LOL Christmas is a federal holiday, anyone can celebrate it.
