Nope just Christians because Christmas celebrates the birth of Christ
The word Christmas derives from the Latin Christa Masa (my Latin is so rusty excuse the spelling) which means
Christ's mass. in English. It is the one day of the year that all masses said are to honor Christ's day of Birth on this earth by the most Blessed of all women the Virgin Mary.

actually, you are right, Christmas is an exclusive Christian holiday. however, in the 11th or 12th century it was a pagan holiday and one of the popes during this time, used this holiday for the celebration of Christ's birth. the romans worshiped their god's during this time and i guess the pope liked their traditions and used them. but, Jesus' actual birthday is some time in june, i believe between the 14-24th of june. so Christmas is a man tradition, celebrated by people. but Jesus was really born.
Merry Christmas

Mostly Christians. There are some Jews and Muslims that believe in Jesus, not as a messiah but as a prophet. They are not hipper into Christmas but they do celebrate it.

Christ-mas is a Christian holiday. Other people may be very tolerant and celebrate it but this holiday stems from a Christian faith.
