So, you're an atheist. Does the term "Merry Christmas" bother you?

99.9% of people are actually agnostic.

All of them have doubts in the back of their mind, and all of them pray when they know they are about to die.

Nope. I doubt it bothers most atheists but obviously you're only going to hear from the ones it does bother because people don't make a big deal about the things that don't bother them.

No. I love Christmas...music, food, decorations, family, gifts, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, etc.

Of course not. First of all, it's dumb to get offended when the other person is just trying to be nice and cheerful. Second, Christmas is a holiday celebrated by religious and non-religious people alike. Why shouldn't I have a merry Christmas?

I wish other people "Merry Christmas" myself.

I honestly don't care if you're Muslim, Jewish, whatever.....if we cross paths around Christmas time....I always say Merry Christmas and Happy New year. Sometimes I think about it afterwards and wonder if it may have offended someone....and then I smile to myself when I think that I did offend them...haha

I'm more on the agnostic side of things. But I don't really care. I only say Happy Holidays because I'm including New Year's. If my friend is celebrating a holiday, I'll refer to it by whatever name it is.

Atheist are bothered by everything. It's like they walk around all day seeing what they can be bothered by most next so they can bring it to the courts. I'm sure their atheist buttholes are very bothered too.

Well, of course not. I'm sure they accept a Christmas bonus because they think they deserve it for having to deal with all the close minded Christians they work with that suppress the atheist.

absolutely not

I say it all the time, said it probably 10x today. And I mean it. It's that time of the year, it's significant, and sincerely do hope people have a Merry Christmas

my views on religion are irrelevant
