That's not the slightest bit true. Millions of non-Christians celebrate it. It's barely a religious holiday anymore. It was all stolen from other religions anyway. Christmas is a fake holiday. The Santa we know today was created by Coca-Cola. Jesus was not born in December. People celebrate it as a reason to get together, eat food, and give gifts.

If it's such a secular holiday, why are Christians so upset about the war on Christmas?

There is no war on Christmas. It's people with a victim complex acting like they're being persecuted because their town put up a menorah or Starbucks cups aren't red enough. People who are so offended by "Happy Holidays", like it somehow doesn't include Christmas. Christmas is the most commercialized holiday there is. Atheist put up xmas trees and give gifts. Sure, there are plenty of people who celebrate it as the birth of Jesus, even though he was born in summer. There are also millions who celebrate it just to watch movies, give and get gifts, eat food, and see friends and family.
