I use Happy Holidays. All inclusive.
I think it's actually sad that we have this gift giving holiday and religious holiday on the same day. This wasn't always the case and in some areas it isn't even today. In Russia, the 25th is the religious holiday. They have a "christmas tree" decorations and gifts on New Years.
I am no longer religious, but I was raised as a religious person and my family drove the two ideas as seperate entities. One being a occasion to reflect on yourself and the meaning of it all. The other to be merry and generous.
Another tradition that has changed is the idea of the christmas tree. Way back when, Santa brought the tree christmas night along with the gifts. traditions change.
