Further do you realize that nearly 80% of those who celebrate the 4th of July are Christians?
ZOMG The 4th of July is a Christian Holiday
That's ridiculous and you certainly know why -- the Fourth of July celebrates a historical event. When observed in a country made up mostly of Christians it does not become "Christian" because not a whit of its origins is rooted in religiosity.
You can't set aside the religious nature of Christmas simply because it has no religious meaning to you and you've decided you like decorated trees.
