But this is my point: Christmas in its totality is not just Christian

Its roots are deep into the Celtic and northern European cultures of the past. Teh christmas date was from Roman and Mithra dates, afterall. When the pc crowd starts editing the tradition, it gets mangled.
When the Channukah songs are sung, they sing about God helping with the candles, etc. But no Christ in Christmas? That is intellectually dishonest, IMHO, whether I am at the front or back of the bus. The public elementary school my children went to was actually majority Jewish, if I remember correctly.
I am such an apostate in the eyes of most Christians, I don't find myself at all supportive of relgious imposition. However, I see control of expression from the top by policy to be inemical to freedom.
