  The word you're looking for is "important."  Anyways, while it's true that all holidays are important, Hanukkah is undeniably a lesser-tier one, probably because it commemorates an event that happened well after the Old Testament (the Maccabees' overthrowing Antiochus).  It's like how Columbus day and Independence day are celebrated in the US, but not on the same pedestal as the truly religious holidays.  Hanukkah makes for a convenient counterpart to Christmas for gift-giving, as it just so happens to fall around the same time.  It's also traditional to give money to your children, so giving gifts too isn't that much of a stretch.

I'm agnostic, so screw christmas. Also, it's supposed to be a time of peace, so it goes against my beliefs.

I don't even feel like being assholish enough to pretend being overjoyed by christmas just for receiving gifts.

(Why would I receive gifts anyway ? I don't give any !)

As opposed to the real, genuine Santa that no-one has seen. You should put up surveillance, catch him on camera and sell it to CBS News or something. You would make <expletive>loads of money.

Actually, and I am not making this up, Santa lives next door to my gran.
