We atheists in the crowd are being ultimately oppressed, because although we don't mind the time off work, we really wish that our entire culture didn't go prune-pudding-for-brains insane periodically. The only reason I do Christmas at all is because of my family. (That said, I think everyone who does Christmas should do a big shindig Christmas...once in their life, just to see what the fuss is about, but doing it every bloody year like my family does is just an onerous chore.)
It's tedious. It's boring. It's an unnecessary expense. Not only that, but most public religious holiday observance is so trite, it's sickening.
