You'll probably find that most atheists call it christmas and treat it
the same way as everyone else - minus the god-bothering of course.
Its just a made up day anyway. Stolen from a pagan festival, just like
most other christian days. There is very little intrinsincally
christian about the whole thing. I like the whole peace on earth and
goodwill to all men, sharing presents with family and friends and
generally having a good time.
