The secular meaning of Christmas is broader than the principles of any religion: it is good for people - this is not an exclusive feature (although it should be a part, it is essentially an invisible part).
The beauty of Christmas is that it expresses good intentions in a joyful, happy, polite, sacrificial way. The man says "Merry Christmas", not "Think and repent." “Good intentions are expressed in a material and mundane form - in gifts to friends or in commemorative postcards.
“The best thing about Christmas is that it is often condemned by mystics: the fact that Christmas is commercialized. merchandise and other businesses - Christmas trees, twinkling lights, bright colors - offer breathtaking views of the city that only the "commercial greed" of a terrible depression can afford.~ Ayn Rand, Objective Calendar, December 1976
