At least you’re better than most Jesus freaks who try to square the circle and say holly stands for Jesus or something.
So when should they have the secular Christmas special which is the holiday most people celebrate?

Ah yes, the “no fun allowed” stance that is so successful

Theologians have debated that one. I recently attended a service where the minister argued for Good Friday being more important.
Christmas is the Incarnation - so it’s like arguing over the most important part of a purchase.
Christmas - money put on the table Good Friday - money taken Easter - Receipt printed

What is the point of of wanting to prevent those who do not share your religion from celebrating their holidays? There is a national secular holiday called Christmas and a religious holiday called Christmas, how does the existence of one cause problems for the other? Are other secular holidays like the 4th of July or Veterans Day also a problem? Is this something similar to Christians having a problem with the secular legal contract called marriage being allowed alongside the religious ceremony and oath called marriage?
