Would be a little more reasonable than celebrating the non-birth of a fictional character.
We go over my brother-in-law's every Christmas. I cringe when he ends the dinner blessing with, "Happy birthday, Jesus!".
I really want to shout out that, even if "Jesus" was a real person, he almost certainly was NOT born on December 25!
I try to get under his skin when I go over their house and wish everyone a "Merry Saturnalia!".

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
