To most of them, it is a "Spending" holiday. It is so massively commercialized that it lost a lot of its religious significance.

If they really want to start a War to Promote Christmas, they should go against the stores and the rampant consumerism, since this thing is supposed to be about introspection and being charitable. I don't see them doing that...

Just have a lot of nerve.
