only Muslims celebrate Eid
Wrong. I have been invited to celebrate Eid despite me not being muslim. And I have accepted the invitation. So I celebrated it with them.

I have also been invited to eat with muslims during ramadan at the end of the day.

I think you are confusing the fact that Christmas is more of a commercial event than a religious one nowadays. At some point, the same will happen with some Islam religious events imo.

The goal is not to celebrate JC but to sale presents and have people buy a lot of shit.

Muslims crying about Christmas is weird as fuck, Since they believe Muhammad and Issa are Equal in terms of Holiness and Muhammad himself kept Issa's portrait in the Ka'aba and that Issa will kill the Dajjal

Especially as they celebrate Muhammad's birthday

(Well Salafists don't but I am talking about the average ones)

At least we are consistent in not believing in Issa and not celebrating any Prophet's birthday
pipe down your hatred

I don't know what Arab people do but Islam teaches not to celebrate the prophet's birthday rather to pray more on that day if possible

also I agree there's nothing to cry about Christmas

I wonder if making Christmas a national holiday basically secularized it.

Because now everyone celebrates Christmas even if you’re not Christian.

Whereas only Jews celebrate Hanukkah, only Muslims celebrate Eid, only Hindus celebrate Diwali, etc.
I assume you're only talking about America

even then that's not quite correct

normal people always invite others to celebrate with them regardless of religion
 
Not only did the Prophet not keep any portraits in the Kaaba it is illogical (and that hadith in particular weak) that there was a portrait of isa in the Kaaba when the Quraish didn't worship nor revere any Christian or Jewish figures except Abraham/Ibrahim
 
it already happens in every Muslim dominant country
I meant that at some point, some islam religious events will also becomes commercial events.
There's a word missing in my post.

But I think it's the logical path in western societies. The muslim population is becoming quite important in some western countries and you can already see how marketing is targeting them.
