Atheism is the the absence of a belief in a deity. "You KNOW it's a Myth!" If you don't have an active belief in a god, you're an atheist. It's a very good thing! Millions of atheists are closeted, to find out more about freethinkers and how Christians stole Christmas, read on.
Jesus, if you believe the Bible, was actually born in the Spring, but early Christians changed it to mesh with other mythos.
Christians don't own this holiday, and never did. Christianity is neither the first, nor the 5th, nor the 10th mythology to adopt the Winter Solstice as their major day. Mythra, Bel, Krishna, Horus, and even the Mayan Qetzalcoatl were all born on the Winter Solstice.

In 1999, a poll by Barna found that divorce rates among conservative Christians were significantly higher than for other faith groups, and much higher than Atheists and Agnostics experience.
Associated Press' confirmation of Barna's results. The Associated Press analyzed divorce statistics from the US Census Bureau. They found that Massachusetts had the lowest divorce rate in the U.S. at 2.4 per 1,000 population. Texas had the highest rate at 4.1 per 1,000. They found that the highest divorce rates are found in the "Bible Belt."
