I'm a christian and I could care less about Santa Clause, Elves, Easter Bunny, eggs..Whatever. They are used by Corporations to make money anyway.. Has nothing to do with Jesus. On Christmas I celebrate Jesus' birth and give thanks. And on Easter I celebrate Jesus' resurrection. I could care less about chocolate.
The "war on christmas" is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. I'm an agnostic myself and it doesn't bother me a bit. It's part of the culture, not just religion.
any atheists that are offended by the Easter bunny, your retarded. any one offended by Christmas or even the word, your retarded. Christians that believe those are their religions holidays and don't know that they are actually indoctrinated, your retarded.
Im an atheist and christmas decorations are not offensive to me. However, if you want a nativity scene on government property, then christians can't get offended by muslim or atheist decorations at courthouses....
@memefly2626 the upside down cross is a symbol of respect for jesus, people were crucified on upside down crosses so they werent at the same level of jesus because they werent worthy enough to die the way he did, so no an upside down cross is not satanic or atheistic. a flying spagetti monster could be an example of an atheist decorations, and when they wanted a nativity scene at a government building in one town, atheists had the right to put up a flying spagetti monster statue.
@420simpson The more decorations the better. Maybe ornate Arabic script could adorn the walls of the interior, and atheists could build statues of secular humanists who made contributions to humanity. Just so provocation is at a minimal.
I love all the different fish symbols. If I had a car, I'd cover it in them. The T-rex one is my favorite.
I am not bothered by trees, decorations, Nativity sets, Jesusy songs, or anything else at Christmas time. It's all about food, partying, and presents, anyway!
The reason they associate the Easter Bunny with Christianity is because of a old old Catholic legend, where a saintly priest put a bunny in a cage, went to bed, and the next day on Easter, there were eggs in the cage with the bunny. At least that's what I found in my searches...
"i am atheist. it can offend." wtf? i am an atheist and i am not offended by bunnies. they have nothing to do with the holiday as a christian event anyway. besides, chocolate bunnies are tasty.
@colombus66 The description in Jeremiah is that of creating a wooden idol--as seen with "a craftsman shapes it with his chisel" (v. 3) Very few people fall down in worship before their Christmas trees, so Christmas trees are fine.
Which is it? You will be hated, or you won't be? Even Jesus wasn't sure of that. Anyway, I don't hate Christians, I just hate the dumb, hurtful stuff they sometimes do and the long-outdated superstitions that they stand for.
The city council building of St. Paul literally looks like a piece of crap!!!

There was an Easter bunny in St. Paul? And who would be more offended? And is there really someone somewhere who cares about this ridiculous holiday?
St. Paul could go back to its original name: Pigseye!
