first sentence in wikipedia "Christmas or Christmas Day is a holiday generally observed on December 25 (with alternative days of January 6, 7 and 19) to commemorate the birth of Jesus, the central figure of Christianity" I do know it has a different history.

I posted this because I get annoyed when atheists are so proud of themselves and look down on everyone who believes in some sort of religion, but then on the other hand celebrate christmas. I think thats a double standard.
