People seem to be arguing that celebrating Christmas leaves out people
and somehow supports Christianity, even if you don't celebrate it as
any sort of religious/mystical sort of holiday at all. My point is
that this is nonsense, and that its perfectly fine to do so. I was
arguing against this idea that atheists shouldn't celebrate Christmas,
which I believe from the above is something you support.
Atheism isn't a religion, it doesn't have special holidays, and I
think Christmas is awesome.
