What are you actually asserting in this thread? And if it is really that a Jew declining to celebrate Christmas is potentially offensive to people how does that actually work?
Ah, I see the confusion now.
The Jewish/Christian thing is different than the atheist/Christian thing. There's no real reason for a Jewish person to celebrate Christmas as there are other cultural things in play. For an atheist with no ethnic Jewish roots, it's a different beast.
