Atheists and Agnostics: Do you celebrate Christmas?
- Thread starter Gringo Starr

The point of Xmas is to celebrate Jesus' birthday. Yet kids sit on Santa's lap and tells him what they WANT.
And the parents fall right into it. Kids can be very demanding and I feel that parents are pressued into getting them EXACTLY what they want or their kids will be dsappointed or mad at them. Parents working double shifts in the months of November and December just so they can rush to the mall on Dec. 23rd to try and fight with 50 other people in the same situation, just to get a freakin XBox. Sounds like lots of holiday cheer.
And dont these kids get their own Birthdays? WHy do WE get gifts on another mans birthday? I know, I know, Jesus dies for US, so we are living through him, right? Something like that.

christmas is good as others have said; family, gifts, period of reflection and planning for the new year. christmas is hardly about jesus anymore; more so about fat santa who used to toss money down chimneys, consumerism, and little johnny getting what he wanted or else he'll feel like his parents dont love him. also, the food is amazing. buy up folks, core inflation is on the rise.
its a fun holiday so yeah I celebrate it, nowadays i swear its getting to the point that people don't know why its celebrated anyways. People kinda celebrate it in japan and they don't know who jesus christ is, they just want presents
Every holiday in america is based offa buying either lots of food, presents, decoritave crap or all 3 anyways, might as well enjoy all the fun even if you know what the deal is. Cuz thats the deal no matter what, if you didn't fall into their plan you might as well just live in the middle of the woods buck naked forging for nuts and berries. Anyother way your always gonna be supporting the system you hate so much
