Yes, my whole family are atheists and we celebrate Santa and the spirit of giving. Love the decorations and don't even mind most of the carols. No Jesus required.
Hi Thump,
I just joined the forum. I read a few months back that hackneyed phrase “Peace on earth and goodwill to all men” is actually a mistranslation!
Luke 2:14 English Standard Version (ESV)
14 “Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”
and KJV changed it to ;
Luke 2:14King James Version (KJV)
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
