That's an excellent point.  In fact, I'm not sure I can think of a better way to undermine Christianity than by celebrating a nice, big, extravagant, consumerist, gift-dependent "EX-MASS" this year.

I used to get cynical about being pressured by people around me to celebrate a Christian holiday, despite the fact that I'd seen what I consider definitive proof of the non-existence of God.  Now I just sit back and remind myself:  If there is a God, he doesn't give two thirds of a shit about who I have dinner with on December 25th.  And even if he does, guess what?  Fuck 'im.  He's a knob.
