Not everyone celebrates every holiday, but to get offended because someone else uses the terminology related to that holiday is dumb. It would be like being offended at the Chinese New Year symbolism that has roots in shamanism and animism. Just because I don't celebrate it, if others want to, then go nuts.
We should be celebrating and promoting diversity, not toning it down IMO.
