Well, technically Christmas isn't the birth of Christ, Christians didn't start celebrating X-Mas until like 300 years after his death. SO I personally don't see why it would bother non-christians to celbrate it because for many pagans, it was their holiday first, and besides the world is set up so that most people use their 2 week vacation time for something so why not give gifts in the spirt of giving and all of that...
You have many Christians you don't celebrate Christmas, myself included starting last year.
But even thought I dont celebrate Christmas anymore, some of these stories were touching.

I know, me and my aunt talked about that last year. I don't celebrate it anymore either. But its just that today its seen as a, somewhat, "Christian" holiday, but without much Christianity involved. I do for people and give gifts all year, and I spoil people on THEIR birthdays. Christmas just seems weird to me these days. No offense to anyone, I'm not hatin!
