1. Christmas is probably the most commercial time of the year, not sure about it being a "money-making scam" though. People are always looking to make money at any time of the year.

2. I don't think so really. Even a lot of people who have religious faith and beliefs mainly see the commercial side as well as its religious meaning anyway. And apart from commercialism and religion, there are other sides to Christmas that are sentimental - like spending time with your family and giving, you don't have to be religious to do either of those. It's a time of year that a lot of people look forward to, religious or not. Even though Christmas is fundamentally about the birth of Christ, I guess it means different thing to different people, personally I don't see anything wrong with that.

3. Dunno, lol. There's no harm in it I guess.
