I'm sick of hearing you same people cry year in and year out. The fact that nobody knows the exact day Jesus was born is the reason why it is ok to celebrate it in December. Seriously going on these tangents about how Christians want their holiday so they can recognize their deity and yell Merry Christmas at people is becoming absurd. I think atheist and agnostics need Christmas so they can promote their refusal of a deity or lack of a relationship with the unknown deity therein. So much time is spent crying about Christian holidays yet Islam gives a whole month of the year to Allah and nobody says anything about that. When Hanukkah rolls around it is business as usual. When Eid rolls around for Islamic people well that's just fine. Halloween is here, splendid time for a marathon of scary movies and a party for the underdressed we will give that two thumbs up. But those pesky Christians and their purchasing power we should stone them for not being 100 percent accurate or knowledgeable on their religion.
This is especially annoying seeing as an agnostic believes in a higher power but is not certain who or what this higher power is. Yet you so vigorously deny that it could be the Trinitarian God head. That's your business and prerogative indeed. But shouldn't you look at what you see as contradictions as merely reasoning for what you would pronounce as logic as opposed to a reason to gripe. The fact is that Christianity is the religion that dominates the portion of the world you live in. If you were in the Middle east it would be Islam and all the holidays which are in accordance with their religion which are equally estimated. So on and so forth. If you were the intellectual you claim to be then you would have dealt with this fact long ago. Your 60 year old epiphany seems to coincide with your introduction to internet message boards and your childhood fantasy that maybe somebody would actually put value in what you say. You are an annoyance similar to the fly that I want to kill but my conscience keeps telling me the little bugger doesn't have much longer to live anyway. My suggestion, find an ocean and see how far you can swim.
