Exclusionary? Do these offended left-out people not get any Christmas presents? Do they not attend the Christmas parties? If they do get presents, bonuses and attend the parties, WHY?
Shouldn't they not get presents, since they do not want Christmas. Shouldn't they not get the bonuses - since they are excluded because of Christmas? Shouldn't they be the ones working on Christmas since they are surely left out of all parties?

Let's put it this way: in the religious sense, Christmas is celebrated by people who at least believe in Christ, or recognize that there are people who believe in Christ. Now, the people whom you mentioned, are included in the secular aspects of Christmas (Santa, gift-giving, etc.). However, it is true that the secular part of Christmas is very inclusionary.
