Christians we should pity and pray for the Atheists at this time of year more than ever.

This must be a hard time of the year for the Atheists because wherever they look, there are reminders that it's Christmas. The venom and spiteful negativity they bear all year will intensify the closer we get to the 25th. Pity them, don't scorn them.

@IndigoSavage You would probably call me an atheist, but I'm actually agnostic; are you aware of the distinction? Regardless, the few true Christians I know despise all the marketing and consumerism far more than the non-religious people I know.

Ask some real Christians; they'll explain to you that pine trees and strings of lights and tubby gentlemen in red suits have [i]nothing[/i] to do with Jesus. It's kind of amusing how mixed up you are about the difference between marketing and religion.
