I have nothing against making Christmas an official holiday.

Why not?  Government doesn't do religion, right?

I personally have nothing against it.
It has come to be a cultural holiday, anyway.

So Government can and DOES do religion.  I wish you'd make up your mind

but how many (if any) of those people are athiest?

Many. Wasn't hard to find one, right off the bat:

"Somerset has been the center of a dispute for several years over a Christian nativity scene erected during the Christmas season in front of the Town Hall. The creche had been a tradition for six decades, but in 1997, American Atheists State Director Gil Lawrence Amancio, represented by the ACLU, filed suit against the display, and argued that it was an unconstitutional endorsement of religion."

SIRS this appears in my front yard every year as a reminder
of what Christmas really is about. The Left will continue
to try and "take Christmas out of Christmas", but those
that of us that do not approve of that should each do
our part and put out CHRISTMAS yard symbols, make sure your
cards say CHRISTMAS, greet people with MERRY CHRISTMAS..ect.
If you believe...lets not let them "take Christmas out of Christmas"!

My yard every year: (and yes vandals have hit it before...but they like the liberals wont win!)

The government does not have the power to "take the Christ out of Christmas".

If you like illuminated mangers, put one on your lawn.

I`ll chaulk it up to a leaning experience. the 1st to attack x-mas was jewish folks and now they backed -off  to avoid (killing x-mas) title. the extreme athiest will learn this too.

I believe we lost 2 years of quality x-mass from this lesson so far.

who knew holiday became a dirty word nowadays

Thats good BT....I think you live in the deep South [><] so I guess thats no surprise.

I plan and put on our annual company CHRISTmas party and we have Santa
for the children. I decorate our rented restaurant private hall every year and
this year i was SHOCKED at how almost nothing as far as decorations you buy
in stores say Merry Christmas.....I've been buying the same stuff every year
since 1999....this year someone got to the corporate buyers and they put a
stop to Merry Christmas or Manger Scene decorations....plenty of Happy Holidays.
Personally I think it is an agenda....because why not have BOTH? If you are
so worried that Merry Christmas on Christmas offends someone, then have
Happy Holidays AND Merry Christmas. And it cant be about what the customer
wants because an overwhelming percent of the customers celebrate Christmas.
This is part of an agenda to take Christmas out of Christmas.
