Most people do, they just reattribute the festival to someone or something in their own faith or give it a different meaning to them. Christmas is a prime example of that. It's actually just Yule with some Christ thrown in there so the Christians wouldn't have to quit doing Pagan and Heathen stuff, which aided in conversion. It doesn't take away from the fact it is indeed an old Pagan festival and most of the customs practiced during Christmas come directly from Germanic/Nordic Heathen traditions and Yule. Most of the world, Christian or not, STILL calls it "Yule". So, yes, I think most people do to a certain extent. Most of them just don't realize they're celebrating the festival of a different faith and/or culture than their own. So congratulations on being both open-minded and not caring what other people think about you celebrating something that means something entirely different to you without trying to hijack it for your own faith or claiming it's always been part of your faith.
