Well, you yourself did say Christmas is a time to celebrate peace and goodwill; to me that's cultural and not the religious significance (mistakingly) of the birth of Jesus (nativity, manger, etc.) Joemikeb also mentioned a time of peace and goodwill, especially in the context of carolers of seemingly all religions. He also said Christmas Day (as opposed to Christmas Eve) has become a cultural holiday celebrated by all religions and atheists.

This last comment is what triggered my response.

I am in favor of peace and goodwill. Perhaps if we practiced it year-round we would not have to single out a specific time of year and Christmas (day or eve) could return to it religious roots.
