We all celebrate Christmas complete with trees, lights, gifts, and so on,

The nonsense parts. Goody for you.

and maybe even mass (though we're there more as tourists than anything else).

This is despicable. You insult people who go to Mass to WORSHIP God by treating it as a theater production, concert or sporting event. If aethists are capable of being ashamed, you should be.

Imagine,, a tourist! You are sickening, and so smug you don't even know it.

Well, listen, what do you want us to do? If we protest against Christmas traditions, you don't like it. If we participate, you don't like it. I suppose we should just banish ourselves from all the festivities while at the same time keeping our mouths shut...?

The fact is, some atheists are married to believers, and many atheists have families who are believers. We're not going to banish ourselves from enjoying the fun, and our families don't want us to do that, either.
