They could have taken on board the holiday spirit and made some nice festive displays, or celebrated science, etc. There is a reason why so many atheists are hated in the USA...it's because of insensitive shit like this.
Over here, most atheists I know celebrate Christmas along with everyone else. Yes, we call it "Christmas" and sing carols, watch nativity plays, and generally have a festive time.
Just my two cents...
...and over here you lose your job if let slip you are an atheist in most scenereos. Where you live is much more atheist friendly then where we live.

The local symphony is doing Handel's Messiah and because Symphony Hall is tied up with some fucking ballet they do it in churches around Phoenix. Anybody got any messages you want me to give "jesus?"
Yeah...tell him to get off his dead ass and be a REAL savior by protecting children from getting raped and murdered.
