What do Atheists do during December 25?

[NNNN]

Tell me honestly, who among you here considers December 25 a Christian/ religious celebration? To start with, the celebration (a variation of Saturnalia) is far from being 'Christian' until it was adopted (i.e. the name and traditions was slightly altered). Now, the celebration has become more and more secular. So whatever non-believers do on this day has no significance. Is it not just like any other day?

Does it matter really? At least most people, especially OFWs, are together with their families during this day (or maybe in some ways). Christians can celebrate Christmas in some ways not just on December 25.

Well, we consider December 25 as the birth of Jesus, so that's the difference. Jesus is our Christian God. Whether Christians are wrong with the birth date of Christ, doesn't matter actually as long as we celebrate his birthday.

So they gather together because it is a CHRISTIAN practice?

So how do you celebrate his birthday? Exchanging gifts dayon mag yawyaw if mas gamay ang value sa nadawat compared sa gihatag? Mag manito-manita dayon masuko if wala pa kadawat sa iyaha, mag yawyaw pa kung unsa siya kakapoy pag pangita og para sa iyang manito/maniata. Mangutang og 5-6 para naay mahikay sa Noche Buena. If I were your god and you celebrate my birthday in that way, do you think malipay ko. Oh, well knowing your god, there is a big chance that he is indeed enjoying it.

Kinsa kahay mag-yaw2x kung gamay ra ang gihatag? Ang importante kay gihatagan ka. Sa kadugay na nakog celebrate og Christmas kay wala juy mag-yaw2x kung unsay madawat or unsay ihatag sa manito/manita. Kamo siguro nga dili mu-celebrate og Christmas?

Weh? Tell me who are those people you've described? I think you just hated Christian practices that much nga ang bati nlng imung mga makita? Hahaiz. What a desparate move.

[)O(]

curious lang. what do YOU do? happy-happy stuff?? laag?? etc?? sleep?? how about if manginvite inyo family over for a get-together? would you celebrate Christmas??

a thread not open to flames, but to honest answers.

cheers.

Ang mga atheist kuyog sa ilang mga uyab nga theist, manimba ug simbang gabi...

[SioDenz]

and what about it?
Christmas nowadays has been reduced to merely just some BRAND
Oh well we have the majority of those believers to thank for it
