They just hate Christianity (like all liberals), but were too dumb to realize that St. Patrick was a real saint and not a Leprechaun who just wanted to get drunk.
I was going to say - atheists don't think twice about St. Paddy's Day because they
know St. Patrick was an actual living person...
- with actual proof of his existence, written in his OWN hand.
Like me, not many atheists "protest" these other holidays either, including Christmas.
Most celebrate these holidays like everyone else in the secular spirit that
they have become, e.g. bunny, colored eggs, candy, decorations, Santa Claus,
and Green Beer on St. Paddy's Day.

Atheists are always protesting Christmas but not St. Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, All Saint's Day (a.k.a. Halloween) or Easter. And they never protest any of the Jewish or Muslim holidays. Why is that?
Atheists protest Christmas? Since when??? I live in the Bay Area, where you'll probably find more Atheists than just about anywhere (in the US), and have never witnessed a Christmas protest - in fact, the whole region is lit up & celebrating like any other that time of year.
Atheists do not "protest" ANY day. They only get annoyed when other people want "their" day universally accepted and acknowledges and celebrated by all. I've never heard of anyone starting a boycott because the cashier didn't say "Happy St Patricks Day"...why is that?
Nope, I don't think they do either! The whole "war on Christmas/Christians" is mostly a FOX News fantasy, while I've yet to see any evidence of it in real life. You're a Bay Area-ite too; have you ever witnessed an Atheist-led protest?
great, then I expect you & every person who does not believe in Christmas plus every politician whether they be state or federal to be working on Christmas day.

Every year in December, thousands of Atheists come together in my neck of the woods and launch a HUGE protest against Christianity: The Million-Atheist-March.
Same on Easter.
They are everywhere. Everywhere, I tell you.
On second thought, they are just in your head because I have never ever seen anyone (let alone a group of Atheists) band together to protest Christianity.
What I have seen is people protesting the violation of the Constitution when extremist Christians attempt to force Christianity onto others. Alas, I am under the impression that this has nothing to do with "hating" Christianity. It has everything to do with loving this country and its Constitution. You see, if Muslims or Jews started force-feeding us their religions, they'd be looking at the same type of protest.
You wouldn't know about that, though, would you? Nah, you are too busy wondering why your need to force Christianity onto all of us isn't received with wide, open arms by everyone.
