    Come on, who else is out there?

    Those who would rather not be celebrating are also welcome.

    I am not atheist but I do celebrate Yule as opposed to X-Mas

    so...dunno if you were getting at something like that or someone who doesn't celebrate anything

    I'm Jewish and we do the stereotypical Jewish Christmas of sleeping late, going to the movies, and getting Chinese food.

    I have no one to celebrate anything with - ergo I celebrate nothing

    Every person I know IRL has family/friends who are special & they are all together during their holidays and times & I always get left out.

    I would rather not celebrate Christmas... -_- but I am living at home with my younger sisters and my parents.. I really don't enjoy it, as a kid it was always such a horrible thing for me. I also hate the whole concept and to me it's all just nonsense.

    Sorry to people who celebrate it, but that's just my view.

    I'm so non-conformist that I reject your offer to unite even though I won't be celebrating christmas. ;0

    Just kidding - I'm all for this union against xmas, but I don't fully get the point.

    I also enjoy the Jewish tradition of Chinese food and going to the movies for Christmas.

    Hum. That's odd.

    My family's tradition is always to get Chinese food on New Years along with popping a bottle of Champagne and some fireworks.

    I didn't know Jewish tradition is to do the Chinese food on Christmas. You learn something every day! :slight_smile:

    I'm pretty sure it's because Chinese restaurants are pretty much the only ones open.
