Why would someone who does not believe in any kind of higher power or deity (an atheist) want to "partake in something,celebrate something" that is based on the existence of a higher power or deity?
Learn about, respect, sure. But celebrate? Why?

I don't know about everybody. I know that my mom didn't solicit our input on how we spent our summers. I know that I DO solicit input from my kids, but in the end, in my family, the adults make the decisions. We may make some that they don't like, but that's our right and privilege, and the kids may have just have to suck it up sometimes.

I didn't imply anything, I'm not going to admit something that I didn't do just because you decided to read a bunch of stuff into a question.

So, like I said, all of this side-stepping was a tad transparent.
