Despite the fact that I do not believe in these celebrations any more, I have always mentioned: Leave Hanuka be, Leave Christmas be, Leave Eid be and leave be any other holiday celebrated by other religions, sects or whosoever. Just live peacefully with each other, and do not impose your belief on each others.
Imposing can take different forms:
1. Verbal, 2. Physical 3. or a silent and sneaky replacement.
Sneaky replacement is the case here in the USA, and I regret to say that there is no one who have the guts to do something tangible about it, but talk, iterate and re-iterate. People, talking is cheap. Nonetheless, I have to admit it is better than nothing.
