My name's Christian... But I don't see what the heck is wrong with capital or not...
As a name its different. The lowercase is what our country is. The United States is a christian country. However, very few Americans are actually Christian, which means to follow Jesus Christ (hence the name).
By saying it is a "Christian" holiday, you imply that it is a direct result of Jesus, and while this is partially true, the holiday itself has nothing to do with Jesus. Its like Christmas.
As a safeguard, I tend to de-capitalize all uses of "christian" because almost all of them refer to the name, not the actual principles...
Nothing important, just ramblings...
