    Celebrate it or not, December 25th is Christmas. It can be other things as well, but it's still Christmas, because Christmas is celebrated on that day. And I don't see what's wrong with giving your best wishes that people enjoy their December 25th, even if that particular date holds no significance for them.

    Would you complain if I told you to have a happy Tuesday? You can still have a happy Monday, and Wednesday through Sunday, but I'm just being more specific with my well-wishes.

    And also, like it or not, Christmas is a secular holiday as well as a celebration of Christ's birth. Essentially what most people are celebrating (that celebrate it) on that day is Gift Giving Day, which happens to share the name of the Christian son of God.

    Plus you're making a pretty big assumption when you talk about how everyone else is focused only on the material possessions of Christmas, rather than the thoughts behind them. That just sounds to me like "I'm better than all of you, even though I don't actually know you or how you think when you give gifts".

    What it looks like to me is that you've just heard a bunch of things about how Christmas is purely consumerist now and you've taken them at face value, as if these people actually know how other people think.
