Yes.
-
I do but I can't speak for everyone else.
-
I believe Thanksgiving is more of a regional holiday (U.S. & Canada) rather than a religous one.
-
No. The Winter Solstice. Same difference.
-
They better celebrate every day they have [or will get in their life], cause that's all they'll get.
-
Do theists celebrate thanksgiving? Is your answer yes? Why is it yes? . There ya go.
-
LOL! Thanksgiving is NOT a religious holiday!
-
i don't associate thanksgiving with religion. i associate it with history. it's been an american tradition since the pilgrims. and i see it as a time to spend with loved ones and show appreciation for all you have. so yes, i celebrate it even though i'm not religious.
-
I am an atheist i celebrate all the holidays. I even celebrate christmas, not as a time to pay respects to the invisible mans son, i celebrate it as a time of joy and giving and love and happyness.. but fuck easter. even though its cool to do an easter egg hunt with random drugs in the eggs
-
Anyone can be thankful. Thank you for the question regarding Thanksgiving
-
Many atheists celebrate it. Very few people use it for religion.
-
What?! That's not even a religious holiday! I imagine if you live in North America you celebrate it, otherwise you don't. This has nothing to do with Atheism in the slightest.
-
If I was American I would most likely celebrate it. I would see it as giving thanks to my family and my country.
-
I don`t. Then why would I? Its just a North American tradition and I`m not from America!
-
Thanksgiving has nothing to do with religion. Do your homework.
-
Thanksgiving doesn't have anything to do with god(s) or lack of it (them).
-
why wouldn't they?
-
As a single example, I do.
-
Not in New Zealand, but then, neither do theists as thanksgiving is a USA tradition and not a religious one.
-
Yes I as an atheist celebrate Thanksgiving in honor of all the brave turkeys who gave their lives so we could celebrate Thanksgiving.
-
Thanksgiving is a harvest festival, not a religious holiday. If it were religious it would be celebrated all over the world on the same day by members of the same religion.
-
Thanksgiving is a non-sectarian holiday, which is why anyone of any faith -- or no faith at all -- can celebrate it. It's simply a time for families to gather, enjoy each other's company, and to be grateful to whoever or whatever -- including their own efforts or those of their loved ones/friends, etc. -- for the good things in their lives. One need not believe in a god to do that.
-
Yes we do. We don't need to crucify the turkey, just cook it and eat it.
-
I don't because I don't live in America. Thanksgiving is an American holiday
-
It's an American holiday and not a religious holiday.
