# *atheist.
Why is this inappropriate? Atheists (such as myself) are practically forced to celebrate Christmas by their family, friends, etc etc...
So why the fuck should we feel the need to believe in god as well?

# I guess I'm just saying
that I don't see how being an atheist and celebrating Christmas is inappropriate, as the original post led us to believe.

I've lost my original point now. *sulk*

# *ruffles hair*
but he's saying his christian friends would find it inappropriate, not us athiests, we're not the target audience.

# Athiests....
Well, what I meant is that it seems wrong to me to gate-crash the festival that Christians have claimed for themselves, and then send them cards telling them that they're wrong!

# Gah! Please spell it right...
And the point is that the Christians are wrong. They stole a festival.
