I, too, bemoan the overcommercialisation of Christmas, and, in spite of my atheism (or at least nontheism) I call it Christmas (in fact I made a good case for it in an article in a humanist magazine: gayandlesbianhumanist dot org/December%202008/Christmas dot htm (I've had to do the URL like this because I suspect that's why my comment keeps getting deleted, even though it is, I hope, a helpful link, and it's certainly not commercial). I made the point for putting the Christ back into Christmas, but "only as a syllable". And I, too, love some of the Christmas songs. We have a double CD of Crosby, Clooney and many more singing show songs and standards, some religious, some pagan ("Deck the Halls", for instance), and, although it's what we in the UK might term naff, it's evocative and certainly adds to the admosphere.
