Personally, people of different parts of the world have different customs. Its usually best to not interfere. So long as it doesnt negatively affect you (like at work or whatever) just let people do what they do.

I am sure there are alot of budists and sikhs and muslims who think is weird that December 25 is a holiday.

Also, while the song post was funny to me, the OP was asking serious questions. Who would post serious answers and or personal experiences in a thread where the 3rd post can be seen as making fun of them - just IMO of course.

While I dont respect certain people who say they practice that faith, many do and while currently its not popular over here to do so, they should be given the same respect as others are so long as their beliefs are not negatively affecting the rest of us - many on CP are atheists, we respect your right not to believe in faith, please do the same for those of us who do (I at least promise not to cram my beliefs down your throat).
