Do Atheists Celebrate Christmas? by BecaciaBarbie(f): 2:08am On Dec 11, 2017 |
I know some atheist, and right now their houses are filled up with Christmas trees and decorations and it baffles me so much, because I wonder why you will celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ if you don't believe He exists in the first place or are they ignorant of the word "CHRIST-Mas" ? Please who is deceiving who? Just a queshion o! No fighting please 1 Like 1 Share |

your fictitious Jesus Christ wasn't given birth to on Christmas day, it was originally a pagan festival. Christmas has evolved beyond the birth of Christ, it is a day to spend with family and friends, have fun, relax and enjoy. if Christians can celebrate a pagan festival why can't atheist do the same. 25 Likes 1 Share |

Jesse01:Should you even celebrate anything at all if you don't believe in religion? Should you even call it CHRIST-mas? Because as we all know, Christmas represents Christ...yes, it's possible Christ wasn't born around this time, but the whole celebration is still related to Christianity. You guys just keep decieving yourselves. 1 Like 1 Share |

MuttleyLaff: The quoran said i should believe in the message of prophet allah. The torah says i should accept Yahweh and believe in the message of prophet Moses. There are thousands of holy books all speaking different things. Which one should i follow And before you quote bible, what makes you think that bible is the one true holy book. Remember there are many holy books apart from bible. Can you prove that the bible is the one true holy book without quoting bible 7 Likes 1 Share |

Seun: The probability that Seu.n will return back to Christ = +1 The probability that Seu.n will not return back to Christ = -1 The probability that Seu.n will be influenced to return back to Christ = +1 The probability that Seu.n will not be influenced to return back to Christ = 0 Since occurrence +1 is greater than either -1 or 0 Seun WILL Finally Give His Life to Christ 3 Likes |

BecaciaBarbie:I'm non believer but don't identify myself as Atheists. Jesus was a real person and existed, but what some ppl don't believe is his claim. I'm from Ethiopia and our Christmas is in Tahsas 29 (January 7). My parents are socialist and don't believe in God, but we celebrate Christmas, Easter and some other Christian festivals because this festivals have been embedded in our culture for 1450 years. Other non believers who celebrate might be because of this also or other reasons. I sometimes go to church and bow and pray for something I don't believe lol. 4 Likes |

Seun:pls read the whole of 1st Corinthians chapter one. with emphasis on verses 22 and 23; I guess you are a "Jew". 19 For it is written, I will baffle and render useless and destroy the learning of the learned and the philosophy of the philosophers and the cleverness of the clever and the discernment of the discerning; I will frustrate and nullify [them] and bring [them] to nothing.(A) 20Where is the wise man (the philosopher)? Where is the scribe (the scholar)? Where is the investigator (the logician, the debater) of this present time and age? Has not God shown up the nonsense and the folly of this world's wisdom? 21For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him). 22For while Jews [demandingly] ask for signs and miracles and Greeks pursue philosophy and wisdom, 23We preach Christ (the Messiah) crucified, [preaching which] to the Jews is a scandal and an offensive stumbling block [that springs a snare or trap], and to the Gentiles it is absurd and utterly unphilosophical nonsense. 24But to those who are called, whether Jew or Greek (Gentile), Christ [is] the Power of God and the Wisdom of God. 2 Likes |

sassyboochic:That the things I need to believe in order to become a Christian are actually true. My answer to the thread is that we celebrate Christmas, but we understand it differently. It is a time at the end of the year when we get to meet with the friends and family members and lovers that we don’t usually get to meet, and have a good time with them. It’s the end of year holiday. That’s all. 12 Likes 2 Shares |
