I find it amusing that someone would recognize the Santa hat as a religious symbol. All that I associate it with is the season of intrusive marketing. Never would I associate it with Christianity itself regardless of my thoughts about the religion. Of course, thanks to the association with the ads for products I find the image kitsch and repulsive, so wouldn't mind if it disappeared from software as well. Regarding the Jewish issue, I have no opinion.
