but the reason that Christmas is made such a fuss about it is because of the "secular" version of the holiday.

Actually it was a *pagan* holiday (Sol Invictus... The Victory of the Sun) that was coopted (rather successfully too, I might add) to become a Christian holiday (The Victory of the Son...)

Can't oblitterate a pagan holiday? STEAL it and make it one of your own.

Now they complain because Sam WalMart tried to steal it back again.

It can be a very valid non-religious holiday if you want it to be.
