In the US (which I don't necessarily think is a bastion of everything right), we have pretty much eliminated 'official" celebrations of Christmas as a religious holiday. I can't see that religiously-observant Christian children have been much harmed by its absence in public schools, and those who are other than Christian (and Jewish is our majority non-Christian religion) or non-religious are spared the official propagation of that faith. That doesn't mean that the entire country isn't decorated for the Christmas holidays by mid-December or that the stores aren't filled with Christmas presents and "decoration ideas" the day after Halloween/Samhain.
