An alternative I use is: “I celebrate Christmas, how about you?” So far I’ve gotten only smiles and agreement.

The winter celebrations are as ancient as the pagan Yule and the birth of the god Mitras, and the all Christians did was to adapt holidays into the New religion. All those who acusse liberals of been the Grinch should read history and -like everyone else- celebrate whatever they feel like. I think that while we respect aand love each other, God is ok with it.
