X-mas?

So my lack of religiousity tends to put some distance between me and my fellow man during this lovely shopping season. I wish everybody happy holidays and sing songs and all that jazz, and unless you knew pretty well I don't think you could tell. But a lot of my friends ask questions around this time. Like:

"So were your parents like really strictly religious?"

"Does Christmas make you miss church?"

and

"What do you do for Christmas?"

The answer to the first to is no. But the last one always has a lot of wiggle room.
Over the years I've come up with a basic response. I don't do anything, I don't celebrate it. I celebrate X-Mas. Its almost the same, just no Jesus. I mean if you think about it, there are already two holidays. There's the religious Christmas, with Jesus and the wise men and Mary. But theres also X-Mas, where we have sales and spend time with our families, we sing carols, we buy presents and generally have a good time.

I think that both holidays are good depending on your beliefs. Its the one time of year I actually like churches, something about the incense...
