Actually if I recall from the ST: Generations movie, there was a scene where Picard was fantasizing about a traditional family Christmas Day.

Right. But that don't mean much. They didn't mention anything the pertaining to the holiday. It was just the setting for that scene. Similarly, Coca Cola has a tv commercial airing right now for the 'holiday season' in which specific mention is made of the 7 principles of Kwanza and the festival of lights but nothing on the birth of Christ. Which in America has been the 'reason for the season'. IMO, general reference to objects or traditions loosely related don't carry much religious weight.
