The fact that a load of non-Christians have jumped on the bandwagon and a having parties at the same time of year because the Christians are having a good time is neither here nor there.
And you're not going to win with that 'most people who celebrate Christmas aren't Christian so it's not a Christian festival', because of the number of Christians in the US of A. Christmas ain't just happening in this country.

Christmas is a christian festival, however the majority of people in Britain dont celebrate it for that reason. Rather they have a week off work, get drunk, spend time with family and dread seeing each other again for another year. In fact never once while ive celebrated xmas, has my family said "oh good its jesus bday" and Im sure if you ask many they dont celebrate his bday. Wasnt jesus jewish anyway?
