Fellow atheists, we are LOSING the war against Christmas

Once more I saw decorations going up in October. Carols in the supermarkets the day after Halloween. It is time we regroup and push Christmas back into December where it belongs!

In the U.S., Thanksgiving is the holiday after Halloween and before Christmas. But it gets totally lost, between the two.

MethDozer · M

@SmartKat no it doesn't

helenS · 36-40, F

I saw the first couple of Easter chocolate bunnies the other day, in our grocery store.

@helenS THE WAR ON EASTER BEGINS

DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F

@helenS you can’t be serious

Straylight · 31-35, F

Do we want Halloween to end up like thanksgiving?

WanderingSavage · M

Most things Christmassy have little or nothing to do with church.

Anyone who decorated a tree worships Odin…

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@WanderingSavage And December 25th was the celebration of Sol Invictus! Christians just realized it's easier to convert people if they can keep their holidays lol

WanderingSavage · M

@CountScrofula Yep. In Easter they didn’t even bother to change the name. Eostre

Carlisle · F

@stratosranger it’s the best time of the year
Now I don’t know if there will be snow
But have a cup of cheer @CountScrofula

DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F

@CountScrofula meanwhile yall started setting up that ugly, tacky, trash, Halloween decor like two months ago 😅 #hypocrites

adorbz · 26-30, F

I bought some spiced apple Christmas air freshener and it’s great 😌 my nose is telling me it’s christmas, just the calendar lies to me 🥺

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@adorbz Aww treat your snoot.

FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F

I'm an Atheist and I like Christmas but they definitely push it earler and earler.
It used to be after Thanksgiving when it started

Ynotisay · M

Well, if you're going to celebrate a dude's birthday, that really isn't his birthday, with an old, magic fat man with a beard, might as well as start in July. I gave up on the War on Christmas before I even knew there was a made up war.

DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F

You will always lose the war against Christians 😌

You can prosecute us and call us names and gang up against us but we will always prevail we have been washed in the blood that you choose to blaspheme

What a pity (for you anyway)

@DeluxedEdition This is about how Wal-Mart plays Christmas music in October not about Christians. Why are you picking a fight about shit I didn't say.

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

@CountScrofula Totally have no problem with Christian Christmas, just don't like the commercialization starting in October.

DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F

@CountScrofula oh I apologize I took the context in any entirely different way I saw “Christians” 😌

Walmart does too much I’m surprised they don’t have valentines shit up

SW-User

I like Christmas
I just don't like most Christians

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@SW-User I like Christmas IN DECEMBER WHERE IT BELONGS.

SW-User

@CountScrofula ok

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

@CountScrofula 👍

SW-User

I'm an atheist, but I like the Christmas feeling

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@SW-User Yeah but do we need half a year of it.

SW-User

@CountScrofula yes 🎅🎄🎁

Budwick · 70-79, M

[i]And there were in the same country shepherds abiding
in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them,
and the glory of the Lord shone round about them:
and they were sore afraid.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold,
I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour,
which is Christ the Lord.

The True Meaning of Christmas (recited by Linus)

And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe
wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the
heavenly host praising God, and saying,

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace,
good will toward men.[/i]

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@Budwick Shoo this is a joke post.

Gangstress · 41-45, F

I get ya. I think majority of people had a couple of shit years to celebrate. It was a mess here for teo years. So why not celebrate for two months lol. If it makes people happy. Why not

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@Gangstress This mostly a joke about how conservative pundits claim there's a war on Christmas because retail chains like saying "happy holidays". Meanwhile they're playing Christmas music for a quarter of the year lol.

I'll never begrudge someone being all Christmassy as much as they want.

bugeye · 26-30, F

not so bad here. mostly getting ready for guy fawkes. bonfires, fireworks, marshmallows and way more marshmallows 😋

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

@bugeye That sounds fun.

SW-User

I actually like most of Christmas. Even the silly story about their king in a manger is cute.

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@SW-User Oh Christmas is fine, but we don't need to spend a quarter of hte year celebrating it, damnit.

SW-User

@CountScrofula How dare thee judge how and when I listen to my Christmas in the Stars album.

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

I think everyone wants Christmas pushed back into December where it belongs! Otherwise I'm going to peak to early lol

Miram · 31-35, F

Yes, we need to assassinate Santa right after we finish this babies casserole.

*hides my Christmas mug*

Offthetop · 51-55, M

Can we at least do a proper observance of Remembrance Day before the glitter comes out?

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@Offthetop Sure so long as we aren't wearing poppies in March lol

@CountScrofula i am recommending you for the naughty list just for considering it 😤😤

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

@CountScrofula The present will be to celebrate Christmas in the month it is in :P

LucyFuhr · 56-60, F

@CountScrofula you get coal in your stocking
@JimboSaturn you get coal in your stocking

TheOneyouwerewarnedabout · 41-45, MVIP

Merry Xmas commie.. may love one day find your retched tortured soul 🕺😇

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout And merry Christmas to you too, you capitalist pig dog.

Sarahsummersrockz · 18-21, F

Christians agree with your sentiment.

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

@Sarahsummersrockz Finally we can team up against the real enemy... uh, Wal-Mart I guess.

Sarahsummersrockz · 18-21, F

@CountScrofula Commercial dilution of culture.

soar2newhighs

Yeah, otherwise the Thanksgiving crowd will be angry!

SW-User

I... I'm ready for the Christmas season to start. 😔 I'm sorry.

Nanori · F

*screams and screeches*

CountScrofula · 41-45, M

Lilymoon · F

JamieDeer ·

Carlisle · F

Tyche · 26-30, F

It's a good thing to be prepared months before so that everything is balanced when the day arise. So no to overspending in december

uncalled4 · 56-60, M

Only Satan puts up decorations in October.

SW-User

@uncalled4 Is this a Halloween joke?

caesar7 · 61-69, M

I agree!! We haven't even been through Remembrance Day FFS!! Shame on all who forget that very important day!!

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

@caesar7 Yes definitely not before Remembrance Day.
