As a Scandinavian, I'm genuinely super happy to hear that! As far as I'm concerned the Christians are very welcome to celebrate whatever they'd like, but they have no right to monopolize the festivities. It's winter solstice goddamn it, it's been celebrated since the beginning of time and belongs to everyone!
It sucks how much of it is Christian in the U.S. My whole life it was, "oh, you're not a Christian and willing to do our Christian things for Christmas? You're not one of us," until I went to the UK. I wish people here understood.
IDK, it seems more like SHOP SHOP SHOP in the U.S. than anything religious.
