What holidays do agnostic and atheist people celebrate?

I'm agnostic but i still want to celebrate christmas and holidays like that with my family because that's when all my family gathers together. Could i still celebrate holidays without being called a hypocrite?

1. Columbus Day, Labor Day, birthdays idk but if it werent for us Catholics then thered hardly be any holidays
2. Sure... Christmas doesn't seem to be just for religious people now.. it has been taken away from it's original meaning and is now more of a time for family and getting together :) If celebrating it makes you a hypocrite then half the world now is :) Christmas, Birthdays, Halloween, Fathers Day, Mothers Day, Valentines Day, Pancake Day, Fireworks Night.. (it also depends what country your in) Enjoy x
3. well person I am a Christian so I really can't tell you what your religion does. P.S. I'm sorry you aren't a Christian
4. I celebrate all of them. I just like the decorations and all. I think of Christmas as a time to just hang out with friends and family, playing games, eating good food. We don't really do a lot of presents. Easter is probably the one I don't do much for, I have a few cute decorations and hubby and I get each other a little candy but that's it. You can celebrate any holiday however you like, there are no rules and you are certainly not a hypocrite. Honestly all holidays have just turned into a way to get people to spend a bunch of money anyway.
5. Most Christian holidays are originally adopted from pagan holidays anyway so it isn't at all hypocritical to celebrate them. Also now holidays are more about spending time with your family and friends than actually celebrating religious things anyway.
6. When it comes to celebrating a holiday, you can do whatever you want without being a hypocrite. What would make you a hypocrite here, would be if you preach against religion to your friends and family, but participate in religious rituals and prayers with them on holidays. Since I assume that you would never be that disrespectful of your family's beliefs, by all means, celebrate with them. These holidays are now more about enjoying family time than about the religious practices for which they were created. (When my then 6 year old brother was asked by his teacher why he celebrates Christmas if he doesn't believe in God, he responded "because its fun") The joy of celebrating with your family should be your only factor in deciding if you want to participate.
