but this particular one celebrates a specific event, one which you do not believe in if you are not a protestant
Catholics don't believe in the birth of Christ? Heck, even Muslims do.
"but this particular one celebrates a specific event, one which you do not believe in if you are not a protestant"
Yeah, maybe 'believe' was not the right word to use there... I didn't want to be redundant by using 'celebrate' again in the same paragraph. Plenty of cultures 'believe' that the event took place while few 'hallow' it.
My apologies... it's 4 a.m., sue me.
