I feel like I haven't been hearing that much about the so-called "War on Christmas this year (YAY), but I still see those stickers on people's cars a lot--the ones with a nativity scene in silhouette and the words "The Real Reason for the Season." And even though I'm not an atheist or anti-religion in general (just anti-certain specific kinds of religion), those things piss me off, because they're just plain inaccurate. The solstice was being celebrated long before Christianity even existed. Sure, Christians are celebrating because Jesus, but they're celebrating NOW because of the winter solstice!
