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 may not believe, really. I don't have a religion of sorts, or care to in the near future. What I do, though, is celebrate the time to be with friends and family.
You don't have to be really religious, per say, to celebrate in activities that involve friends and family. It is move over a tradition that has been marked so people can put them selves aside for a moment to share themselves with others, and enjoy what time they do have. I do have to say I don't agree that you have to be religious to celebrate a religious holiday, such as Christmas, or Easter. Afterwards, some people may even think of joining a religion. Seems kind of odd, but it is possible. You really need to think of everyone, and anyone. There is a type of person who probably has a family of Mormons and celebrates Hannukah. It really doesn't matter. What does matter, though, is the time you spend with loved ones, and to let them know you care. - |
