According to Atheists Christmas is not a Christian holiday and it seems to me we have discovered time undoing! To me it looks like that if the Atheists say it (or around 800Million or so Atheists) say it then that means that it is not true. Okay so me and more than 75% more of the world believe in some type of a god. That now means that Atheists were never made.
Am I right?

Wat. Speak clearly and understandably. Maybe then I'll figure out what you're trying to say.
Second, as an atheist I still celebrate Christmas, just not the Christian aspects of it. So I get together with family and exchange gifts, but I don't go to church or anything.

Quote from wikipedia »
Santa Claus, a jolly old fat man with a long white beard who is said to distribute presents to good children on Christmas Eve, is largely based on Odin, merged with the Christian legend of Saint Nicholas of Myra.[17] Christmas itself and most of its traditions in Germanic countries derive from the pagan winter solstice holiday Yule.
Odin was recorded as leading a great Yule hunting party through the sky.[18] Two books from Iceland, the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier sources, and the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson, describe Odin as riding an eight-legged horse named Sleipnir that could leap great distances, giving rise to comparisons to Santa Claus's reindeer.[19] Further, Odin was referred to by many names in Skaldic poetry, some of which describe his appearance or functions; these include Síðgrani,[20] Síðskeggr,[21] Langbarðr,[22] (all meaning "long beard") and Jólnir[23] ("Yule figure").
According to Phyllis Siefker, children would place their boots, filled with carrots, straw, or sugar, near the chimney for Odin's flying horse, Sleipnir, to eat. Odin would then reward those children for their kindness by replacing Sleipnir's food with gifts or candy. This practice, she claims, survived in Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands after the adoption of Christianity and became associated with Saint Nicholas as a result of the process of Christianization and can be still seen in the modern practice of the hanging of stockings at the chimney in some homes.[24]
Atheists don't believe in ****. So they can't say ****.
Atheists believe in a lot of things, just not God.
Different atheists believe different things, yes, as atheism is simply the rejection of theism and no other characteristics or dispositions are emergent from the term. Atheism does not further mandate a subscription to any stance on anything.

Time to use his logic:
Well you fail to take into account that it takes about 300 or so creationist to equal a normal person... so by that logic, you'd need 240,000,000,000 creationist to make us disappear.
Normal logic:
people have no influence on REAL history, physics, or existence. Those are natural things and we are bound by them.

Sigh.
Leaves before urge to start another "XxEyesightxX vs MCForum" thread takes hold...
Only you didn't succeed.
Impregnate me.

My own idea about the universe incorporates String Theory, Multiverse Theory and research on the Higgs Boson Particle.
I can't take the logic of someone using broad numbers and incoherent facts.
