Godamnit, Those People™ are out there celebrating the joy of family, gift giving, and cheer - don't they know that christmas is all about torture and blood sacrifice? Quick, grab the next happy kid you see and tell them!

I bet the pagans thought something similar about the christians, lol. If we're looking for someone to give christmas thanks to we should probably start with Dickens. The guy invented the industry.

Just let people celebrate their holiday as they see fit. If it bothers you then just ignore it. I have tons of friends on Facebook that are sharing those types of posts. In December and April. Saying nasty things just makes you look like a jerk. Just my two cents.

No one's saying they can't celebrate Christmas however they like.  The issue is that they're telling us (atheists who celebrate Christmas) that we're doing it wrong, that having fun with friends and family is somehow anti-Christian because we don't put Jesus into the mix.

Who's the jerk now?
