Why not? A reason to party! The freaks do come out at night and the winter soltice is the longest night! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Wiccans DO celebrate the soltice but no fair-minded one would claim it to be exclusive. I find it highly unlikely that these or any other stauch atheist's are going to cast a circle and do rituals in honor of spiritual archtypes and traditions like a witch would do.
Good point. Like I said before, its harmless, just feels wierd to celebrate anything to do with nature. I dont know. Maybe Im being to stauch about it.
I have been athiest my whole life, but am just becoming active in an athiest group here in town, so Im learning some new things. Maybe I'll flow with it, maybe not.
