Christmas and Hanukkah both have rich histories to back them up, and millions of people celebrate these holidays worldwide

But, if truth be known, Hanukkah derives most of its importance from its proximity to Christmas and became a big deal only to rapidly assimilating American Jews in the 1950s.

"Kwanzaa" is of course a complete fraud, and no, nobody celebrates it except public employees.
