People put more money and time into charity around Christmas than any other time of the year. Its one of the few times that I actually donate to a charity (I'm a poor student so I can't actually afford it...). So claiming that no good comes out of it is completely false.

Also the only time I have ever gone to church (When I was younger and still a Christian...) was on Christmas day. So again, to claim that there is no God in many people's Christmas is completely false.
