Do atheists celebrate Christmas? Yes, they do. It’s a holiday with friends, family, food, drink, and gifts; what’s not to like?  However, it doesn’t belong to Christians. 

Populations in the northern hemisphere had a midwinter festival long before the Christians got going. 

That’s why there’s a decorated tree, holly, ivy, yule log, mistletoe, St Nicholas (Father Christmas, Santa Claus), etc.  Christmas is just a winter festival which we can all share in. You may want to call it Yule, or just the winter festival but whatever you want to call it, its a great time of year for all the family..   

So, Happy Christmas everyone!
