The commercialization of religious holidays and ritualized gift exchanges don't take away from personal spirituality, in my opinion.

While Christianity has absorbed many pagan religions and has developed different branches, all of those things happened 100s of years ago. I think it is safe to say Christianity has many true holy days, and that it isn't for unreligious people to make generalizations that just because Macy's popularized Santa Claus, that Christians (and other religious denominations) can't have a close, personal relationship with God or celebrate feast days and major religious celebrations.
