You could go to all of them, but some religious people can sometimes be fanatical about their religion. You know how some parties are invite only? Since Christmas in nominally universal it's more like...an open party. And you're confused because we're talking about this in terms of parties which is really a holiday...but that's not to say you can't make a party of it. It's not all charity, I'm sure there are aspects of Christmas you'd enjoy very much like eggnog and presents.

There's a German Christmas legend that on Christmas eve rivers turn to wine, animals speak to each other, trees blossom and bear fruit, mountains open up and spill out precious gems and church bells can be heard from the bottom of the sea. It's a magic that only the pure of heart can witness. Everyone else has to celebrate the normal German way, which is good too because we start our celebrating on St. Nicholas day. We place shoes by the fire place so St. Nick can fill them with treats or twigs if we've been naughty. We have the Thomas Donkey which is very funny...there's feasts and decorations. It's a crazy time where I come from.

Are you expecting me to expect something from you for my birthday? If you wanted to get me something I wouldn't say no, it's all part of the surprise, but I'm not expecting it.
