you can't have it both ways! Options

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!

i feel like this about Christmas. Yeah Christians celebrate it as the day in which Jesus was born on to this planet. And Easter is the day in which Jesus was born again. But i feel that for christmas there is more things to celebrate. Giving, Being with your family and loved ones, and showing you over all love for those close to you. Easter on the other hand can really be taken for face value and that is the religous side. So i dont celebrate it with the rest of my family....i usually spend the day in my room...but i do go and meet with my family for dinner. As for Christmas being a Christian thing.....did you kno the Santa Claus is an Islamic belief. He started in Turkey as father Winter. Yet we throw him into our christmas and call it a christian holiday...i find that interesting
