You know, I just have to ask... is there a reason you actively avoid saying Christ, God, Christmas, etc? It's lovely that you're inclusive of everything else out there, honestly it is, but that sometimes weirds me out that you go so far out of your way to avoid using those words.

Also, I don't consider my celebration of Christmas to be particularly derivative of anything. Sure, the date and the tree got co-opted from elsewhere, but the Bible story that they're currently used to celebrate didn't. I'm celebrating my Savior's birth. The fact that some of the trappings of the celebration were borrowed doesn't mean that my celebration itself is derivative.

I'm not offended, I'm just letting you know my point of view, and genuinely curious about yours.
