Atheists should not be allowed to celebrate Christian holidays...
My first religion shitpost ever. I thank everyone but hold your applause.
Continuing on. Atheists should not be allowed to celebrate christmas and Easter. They don't believe in Christ and that's what those holidays are centered around. It's hypocritical to deny god but take part in his holidays.
Bottom line. No Christmas or Easter for atheists.

20 RepliesOkay, so if that is the case, why do Christians celebrate these festivals, in much the same way that Pagans celebrated Yule/ Sol Invictus/ Saturnalia, and Easter? The exchanging of gifts, decorating houses, Christmas trees, eating and drinking yourself silly, are all traditions dating back to pre Christian times. Christians should do none of that, if they are to be strictly observant. Christmas to Christians should be a time of fasting and abstinence. Easter or Eostre is the name of a Germanic goddess associated with hares, eggs, and most of the imagery of Easter. I don't really mind what Christians do, but when they celebrate Christmas and Easter like Pagans, they have no grounds to tell Atheists what to do.
