directly refuting your idiotic claims is not a concession, lol. Looks like we need to add that word to the long list of things you don't know the meaning of. Christmas is not exclusively a Christian holiday. MILLIONS of non Christians celebrate the secular holiday of Christmas. This is demonstrable and objective fact.
Still posting lies, you refuted nothing, its all in your imagination. FALSE That is not the meaning of Christmas The accessories that you incorporate which are Christian accessories btw and celebrated by Christians as an accessory to Christmas has nothing to do with the 'factual meaning' or 'core' purpose of Christmas. BY DEFINITION: Christmas noun, Definition of Christmas 1 : a Christian feast on December 25 or among some Eastern Orthodox Christians on January 7 that commemorates the birth of Christ and is usually observed as a legal holiday https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Christmas "By Definition" Christmas is celebrating the birth of Christ. Saint Nicholas - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Saint_Nicholas Saint Nicholas of Myra (traditionally 15 March 270 – 6 December 343), also known as Nicholas of Bari, was an early Christian bishop of the ancient Greek maritime city of Myra in Asia Minor (Ancient Greek: Μύρα, modern-day Demre, Turkey) during the time of the Roman Empire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Nicholas Saint Nick (Santa) was not an atheist, the celebration of Christmas has nothing what so ever to do with atheist. LMAO You are not an atheist, by your own admission x2, by no stretch of the imagination. Suck it up buttercup!
Yeh you do that rahl First Known Use of Christmas before the 12th century, in the meaning defined at sense 1 History and Etymology for Christmas Middle English Christemasse, from Old English Cristes mæsse, literally, Christ's mass Atheology is all about who can cut the biggest and loudest beer farts and belches so now they are even trying to hijack Christmas, the birth of Christ and Christ's Mass FFS!
2 bullseyes! rahl claims to be an atheist because he alleges that he lacks belief, (he does not as Maquiscat and other have proved). The contradiction here is that the definition of atheist is NOT lack of belief, but a positive belief that G/god(s) et al do not exist. It is a lie to continue posting such nonsense since we can all read the definition of atheist from the rahl bible. yes its been proven you are posting lies, The truth: From merriam-webster: --------------------------------------------------------------------- atheist noun a person who believes that God does not exist https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/atheist --------------------------------------------------------------------- First he claims to lack belief, and in the same sentence he claims to believe by declaring he is an atheist which by definition is a 'positive' belief, the belief that no G/god(s) exist! Then argues tooth and nail he has no beliefs. Perfect example of irrational Cognitive Dissonance.
It does not matter how many times you post this, the facts remain the same. Christmas is not an exclusively Christian holiday. It is also a secular holiday, celebrated by MILLIONS of non Christians.
NO its not. Ask any Christian and they will tell you, its purely Christian. Such nonsense and outright foolishness you pedal! rahl, just because its celebrated by people who are not Christian does not change its meaning. BY DEFINITION: Christmas noun, Definition of Christmas 1 : a Christian feast on December 25 or among some Eastern Orthodox Christians on January 7 that commemorates the birth of Christ and is usually observed as a legal holiday https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Christmas "By Definition" Christmas is celebrating the birth of Christ. There is NOTHING secular about the birth of Christ. As everyone who is capable of reading can see, not secular what so ever, by definition as the definition spells it out in no uncertain terms. YOU ARE POSTING BOLD FACED LIES AGAIN Just because athiests worship the birth of God made man along with the Christians does not make it secular, it does however prove you are not an atheist when you join in the ritual deity worship. Damn rahl, a person would think you would be correct at least once in a while! Even a broken clock is correct once a day! atheology noun Definition of atheology 1 : opposition to theology https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/atheology Can you please take a break from posting a constant stream of bullshit? I really do not enjoy constantly embarrassing people but the truth must prevail.
the hundreds of millions of non Christians that celebrate the secular holday called christmas show that it is.
DOnt get me wrong man theres nothing wrong with celebrating the birthday of Gods visit to earth, but to claim its secular for the obvious purpose of covering your ass for yet another blunder is wrong because its simply not the truth and misrepresents reality and purpose of the ritual.
it's demonstrably a secular holiday, as well as a non Christian holiday. It's why hundreds of millions of non Christians celebrate the secular holiday called Christmas.
Why bother. The fact is there is no more evidence for a god than there is for any other imaginary creation of man’s imagination. all the rest of this discussion is just intellectual masturbation !
rahl, self proclaimed, atheist admits that both himself and millions of atheists celebrate the birthday of God becoming a flesh and blood man. People always celebrate everything they dont believe in like Christmas, Communion, Prayers etc etc etc! LMAO Mass, the central act of worship of the Roman Catholic Church, which culminates in celebration of the sacrament of the Eucharist. The term mass is derived from the ecclesiastical Latin formula for the dismissal of the congregation: Ite, missa est (“Go, it is the sending [dismissal]”). lol Both by definition and demonstrably its a Christian religious ritual and Mass celebration. Just like playing baseball is a sport!
the dictionary definition of atheism is not my opinion. It's the actual meaning of the word. I've corrected you on my position dozens of times so when you claim I believe there is no god, you are intentionally lying about my position.
but the interpretation of the dictionary is your opinion, and as usual that is where the problem is. like disbelief in God? You claim you are: which 'by definition' is the belief no God(s) exist, just like water is wet! I gave you the definition from your dictionary. It is you who are posting lies. You claim to an atheist, LoB is not the definition of atheist as you falsely claim. Your whole premise is riddled with lies.
I have shown that it is what you believe. You believe there is no God. Atheism is a religion that believes there is no God
