As a national holiday, it should vanish. Instead, it should be called simply Family Day. One day out of the year that is dedicated to and celebrates the Family. Times in my childhood, I spend time in a Jewish household. They do not celebrate Christmas. I did not miss it - of course, my family was very, very poor back then. So even in those years afterwards, when we did celebrate Christmas, I only got presents like clothes, socks, underwear. One year I got a Dictionary and some slippers - both second hand from a yard sale. None of the Christmas' that we celebrated had anything remotely to do with the Christian Religion. It was nice to have the family together, however. And normally, either an animal would be slaughtered and at least there would be food, or we had some wild game that we were able to hunt down. These days, though Christmas is celebrated in my house, me and my wife do not exchange gifts with one another, nor is it in any way, shape, or form related to any sort of religious celebration. The family gets together, some gifts get exchanged, and a big dinner is served.
