re: #229 WindUpBird
I always considered Christmas to be mostly a secular holiday. If Christians want to celebrate it in very religious fashion, hey great! But winter celebrations are about as old as civilization. I know atheists who are ALL ABOUT CHRISTMAS. They go nuts with decorations, caroling, the works. They have a garage full of rad Christmas kitsch and go hog wild with presents. Christmas is my favorite holiday (along with halloween) and I’m not Christian.
Truth be told, I don’t do any decorating of any sort. In fact, I can’t stand it (or most holidays for that matter).
