See shc this is what I totally relate to with the exception we aren't Wiccan. We have children so naturally we celebrate Christmas, Halloween and Easter. While Eric and myself are both atheist our children are allowed to choose what they believe in. Two of our children are indeed Christians while one isn't. We do not judge our children for their choices.
In my game there is no religion. I don't play the way most people play and even if I did my game would remain the same. To echo what Enayla said I like the political correctness of the game that there is a complete middle ground. I do have a religious set that I created for someone else in my folder that sadly has never been put to use.
Honestly, I've never considered the Happy Holiday SP to be particularly religious. Before my family became Wiccan we were one of those families that seems to be the norm of today, did not go to church, somewhat athiestic but still kindof believing in a higher power, cuss using 'oh my god' 'jesus christ' 'jesus mary and joseph' etc etc without it actually meaning anything, and most specifically we still celebrated christmas and easter as well (holloween isn't really celebrated in australia). Alot of people do, even fullblown athiest. These holidays in my belief have transended beyond their religious purpose and have become instead apart of tradition and culture of the western world. Even now that I am wiccan I still give out christmas cards
to my friends and even gifts to the junior members of my family(who are stoked that they get 'xmas' twice a year). And I'm not above getting wasted with my friends at their xmas parties either :wink:
