Christmas is a Pagan holiday. The christians stole it. I'm here to take back what is rightfully mine.

I now declare every Monday a non-denominational holiday for everyone that does not celebrate organized religion.

See you fukkers Tuesday. Merry Capitalism!

looking at the hordes at the mall, I'd say it is still a pagan holiday.

celebrate the birth of a kid with a party, baptism is just the kid being introduced into a religion, not just a birth fest.
and christmas is about the presents, and family, and the cross/Jesus thing is just an old excuse/reason which started the event and then faded as society changed.
There's plenty of ways to justify the holidays without religious backing nowadays. The parties go on, while the meaning for celebration evolves.

Happy Tuesday Charlie! I like the idea!
The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own.
You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president.
You realize that you control your own destiny.

Jesus is not what started Christmas, just gave it a new name.

I'll second that!
The theory of evolution is just as stupid as the theories of gravity and electromagnetism.
