"Merry" Christmas is simply the Catholic church making a bogus Christian link to pagan Winter Solstice/New Year celebrations and making them a phony Christian holiday.
Presents, trees, feasting, Santa, eggnog, etc. are all non-Christian ideas.
Don't get bent out of shape about it.
If you're a devout Christian, go to church, pray, be thankful for Jesus, etc.
Whether you're a Christian or not, put up a tree, take the day off, exchange gifts, feast, spend time with your family, drink eggnog, share the love, help the poor, etc.

Agreed.
Also for reference, the picture you posted of Bin Laden is probably pretty close to what Jesus looked like.
