There are 2 kinds of Christians: Those who actually follow the faith, and those who only show up for Christmas and Easter.

There's a German term for that 'Uboot Christen' - submarine Christians. They only emerge twice a year.

Considering Christians took the Christmas celebration from what they call "Heathens" or "Pagans", I think it is fair. Eastern celebration probably the same.

Eh not really - https://historyforatheists.com/2024/12/pagan-christmas-again...

Easter also not pagan. But pophistory thinks that as well. Scholarship doesn’t line up.
