Hi!
Christmas is pronounced "Christmas" and not "Chrystmas" which is a clue that this festive season is not just for Christians, in fact Christians simply misappropriated (stole) the festival from pagans many centuries ago.

The story of the shepherds being on the hills on the mountains of
Galilee does rather point to a warmer time of year.
Enjoy your sausages!

I pronounce "Christian" as "egregious cockwombling".
