Listen to Dr. James P. Wickstrom "Christmas is Pagan" 1999 nachrichtenhauschen.blogspot.com/
As an atheist, rather Christmas is pagan, or not, is of little matter to me.
It is vital to understand that there is no truth without discernment and no wisdom without the truth. What then is “faith” but an effort to confound truth and wisdom?
OK, atheism is what you've chosen. Many brilliant thinkers have done the same. Regardless of one's "belief" (or non-belief) system the whole of Christmas merry-making is paganism and religious. One practicing or participating in the Christmas fraud should at a minimum admit their pagan leanings. Christmas celebrations are definitely pagan (and have been for millenium). Being an atheist, the religious perspective holds little meaning for you (Christians should be so aware), but the peer pressures and commercial rot that are created annually through this fraud amount to acceptance of a lie in order to further the commercial indebtedness of millions. All I'm really interested to say is that the practice is harmful and intelligent people should discard it or at a minimum simplify it so that the commercial negatives disappear. People should quit teaching their children to lie and accept lies, which is what the whole Santa Claus fiction is about. "the man who puts all the guns and all the decision-making power into the hands of the central government and then says, “Limit yourself”; it is he who is truly the impractical utopian."
