i'm an atheist, and that i say "Merry Christmas". plenty. To strangers. ^__^ Merry Christmas! <3 it truly is no longer an offensive term interior the least. I take it i visit would desire to repeat this a variety situations over the subsequent week or 2... yet it truly is large. truly, atheists usually have no longer something against the holiday. it truly is 2 issues truly that effects in this concept. One is that when Christians call for that atheists do no longer rejoice the holiday atheists develop that Christians do no longer own the day, and that they stole it from pagans. This leads to a combatitive backward and forward over countless issues. the 2d is that in many situations government companies sponsor religious reflects, and that annoys some human beings because of fact it truly is a technical violation of the regulation. This effects interior the impression that a approach or the different Christmas is under attack. Christian pundits p.c.. up on the two considered one of those and run with it. truly... i like Christmas, and have no issues of all people employing the term. Nor do any of the different atheists that I seek advice from usually. In a private communicate board for atheists that I belong to, I asked in basic terms that question. What do human beings sense approximately Christiams... the outcomes? comparable to Christians, without the religious connotations. We dislike how commercial it has exchange into, yet we adore the holiday. some extra advantageous than different's.
