It’s celebrating a festival, a religious festival, a Christian festival, even its name is a clue, Christ-mas. Christ the son of god, the basis of Christianity. If you can’t understand what you’ve done I fear for you. You even wished someone a merry Christmas on this forum, so just by saying that it has a religious connotations. It really is strange you can’t recognize this.

I have answered it, it’s a religious festival which you took part in. Just because you don’t like the answer it doesn’t mean it’s untrue

You celebrated a religious festival yet you are vehemently opposed to religion. Just because you keep denying it it doesn’t make it untrue.

I’ve never done anything I’m vehemently opposed too, Like MLG is about god and religion

But you don’t believe he exists, so they aren’t true stories in your opinion.

They will also be off work New Year’s Day. Why not have your present exchanges that day? Why do it on the 25th December? Why not just choose any random day during the year when you’re all off work, August bank holiday perhaps?

Could it be there were a lot of people like you around in those times?

Okay, you just randomly picked the 25th December to spend the day with you family exchanging gifts. We believe you.

I’m not sure why you keep going on about it. Christmas is a Christian festival and MLG, the staunch atheist who believes the bible condones racism, sexism, genocide and many other things celebrated it, making him a hypocrite.

You celebrated a Christian festival. However much you protest against it you did. That makes you a hypocrite.

Yet you celebrate his sons birthday, you utter hypocrite

When you were exchanging gifts with your family celebrating this Christian festival you didn’t seem too concerned about sexism, genocide and homophobia

It’s fine Matthew, you don’t have to justify it to anyone. The traditional way of celebrating Christmas, a Christian festival for the birth of gods son, is to visit family, exchange gifts and have a meal and drinks. I completely get that you decided to visit family, exchange gifts and have a meal and drinks you weren’t celebrating A Christian festival at al you it just happened to be a compete coincidence that you chose to do these things on that day, not any of the other 364 days in a year.

Yet you celebrated it. How odd.

No pal, just enjoying your own goals.

Why do it on the 25th of December then? Why not do it on the 28th, 30th or an other day of the year?

Yes I did and I know it was a Roman festival. However you even said yourself that Christians picked it up so thereby confirming its a Christian festival, as MLG is at pains to state how he is atheist and takes everything absolutely literally any form of celebration however minor makes him a liar and a hypocrite.

He didn’t say if they respected Jesus, he said if they didn’t celebrate Christmas, another embarrassing own goal in your desperation to be seen as a lovely left wing person Johnny Boy

You’ve just upset 3 billion Muslims and Jews you racist scumbag

There is also a thread of this in the lounge and this thread is not football related so should be moved and or locked

I’ve read a few snippets from the book and it looks hilarious, also enjoyed the review of cats.

Jesus didn’t exist before Christianity did he and the birth of the person it’s about is pretty unique! Mr wrong or should that be mr hypocrite

It’s a Christian festival celebrating the birth of gods son, by taking part in it you are celebrating it and that makes you a liar and a hypocrite and also wrong about your protestations, but we’re all used to you being wrong.

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/christmas Christmas - the annual festival of the Christian church commemorating the birth of Jesus celebrated on the 25th December now generally observed as a legal holiday and exchanging gifts. You are wrong (as usual) and you are a hypocrite.

Yes there is, it’s a religious festival, celebrating the birth of the son of someone you don’t think exists. by taking part in it you are proving yourselves a hypocrite.
