is it fair that non-christians celebrate christmas with presents and christmas trees? i can't stand it when people openly say how they hate religion and christianity, then come christmas time, they brag about their christmas presents. that goes for easter too. people openly reject jesus christ's resurrection but they celebrate easter. and to add insult to injury, they completely change the meaning by having egghunts and bunnies.

-edit- uh yeah. you can't have it both ways! either become a christian and partake in our holidays, or stay an atheist/agnostic and don't celebrate our holidays, and don't change our holidays either!

This is a rather difficult topic..

Christmas has turned so.. so commercialized, that it's not even really that religous anymore.

All anyone cares about anymore are the presents and decorations.
No one really cares about the church aspect of it.
I do, however.

I think that many people celebrate Christmas for the Santa part of it, and not necessarily the Jesus's birth part.

I don't know.
Obviously, you can do whatever you want in your own household.
I'm neutral on this one.
Christmas is quite.. gifty now days.. so, it's not necessarily just for Christians anymore.

Christmas is celebrated by the majority of the country now..
Somehow, I don't think it's right to celebrate Christmas, and not believe in God in some way, shape, or form.
I have nothing against people who do that, however.

If you're a Christian, and you celebrate Christmas.. I think it's necessary to go to church on Christmas Eve, or Christmas. It's just something good to do for your religion.

Yeah. Anyway..
