Don’t want to endorse Christianity necessarily but hard to get around saying the word Christmas or Xmas, so is Xmas more rebellious? Is there an even more rebellious or irreverent name for it?
Also, should I not even celebrate Christmas? What’s an alternative that features the presents-giving at the same time of year but in a way that isn’t tied in any way to religion (and ideally doesn’t involve killing turkeys)?
It’s not that hard to get around saying it when everyone is non-religious. I don’t think it was mentioned last year at all and it’s not like we tried.
We basically just celebrate that we all have time-off at the same time, so we all meet at my brothers house and and eat, drink and be lazy for a couple of days. The religious or traditional aspects don’t really come into play at all.
