I was raised in a very conservative Church of Christ, and they did not observe Christmas. We had a Christmas tree at home and gave presents, but I was always taught that the celebration of Christmas was one instituted by man, not God, and there was no observance at church. I know there are other churches that don't observe Christmas either. So, yes there are religous groups that have a problem with Christmas, they just don't make a lot of noise about it.

Precisely what I'm talking about. You didn't try to force your beliefs on others. No doubt Christmas has been commercialized beyond belief, but to completely take Christ out of it is ridiculous. What is it coming to? Worshipping the tree?
