The secular one or the religious one? I'm a little tired of the confusion.
Perhaps both of them would work best: Yule for the secular family-food-gifts-warmth in midwinter celebration, Christ Day or something for the religious celebration. (Incidentally, why do Protestants want anything to do with a Mass?)
Better yet, let's move the secular one to the 22nd and just nuke an entire work week. Holidays three days apart guarantees some oddball time off setup.

IMHO, the secular one should end on Christmas Day, just as the religious one begins as the 12 day celebration it was. The secular one should be the "Holiday Season" and the religious one Christmas.

God is not the author of confusion, nor of Christmas.
The whole thing is a pack of secular & religious lies.
Christmas is NOT birth time of Jesus, nor Christ.
Christmas is NOT the nicest time of the year, but the worst.
There were NOT 3 magi, but 3 gifts fr many Babylon Jews.
Wise men did NOT visit a babe, in a manger, at Bethlehem.
Shepherds do NOT abide flocks in the field at night at Xmas.
Xmas Tree is NOT Godly, but a vain Babylon custom: Jer 10.
King of the Jews (Law) is NOT the King of Kings (Grace).

Let's rename the Secular one "Capitolism Day"
That's essentially how we celebrate it.
Or "Festavus(sp)"

Which one is which? I'm confused! But If I had to choose one I would say the religious one!

You seem to have not noticed, We Christians are the ones who celebrate Christmas the right way.
I mean COME ONE!! its CHRISTmas!! where do you think the name came from?? It's not THE day that Christ was born on, it's just the day we celebrate it on.
Love in Christ, Merry CHRISTmas
