Atheists and Easter/Christmas


Okay so yeah I started to ponder this because it seemed like a fascinating subject to delve into. How come people will say they're an atheist or don't believe in God or whatever but still celebrate Easter and Christmas? I've thought about this and it absolutely makes no sense whatsoever.

Like Easter and Christmas are originally holidays that celebrate the birth and death of Jesus. If you never heard of him he founded the religion of Christianity. So if you're outspoken as someone who does not believe in any God or anything than why do you celebrate those holidays? Like I'm not saying you're a bad person or you're wrong for not believing in something I could care less but it just still doesn't make any sense.

First of all, kids get a boatload of candy at Easter. You know who really deserves that candy? The kids who had to sit through an hour or longer Easter morning mass. The non-believers, what are they doing just playing video games all morning and then they get free candy? Load of bullshit you gotta earn that candy.

Christmas? Last time I checked Santa Claus is old SAINT Nick. Saint. He isn't Jolly Ol' Scientist Nick spreading science to all the children. He's Jolly Ol' Saint Nick who gives presents to the good little boys and girls. He's flying a sleigh powered by magical reindeer and not a flying a stealth bomber constructed of science.

Stop trying to steal my holidays and get your own.
