This question beleive it or not is easily answered. No other figure in the history of the world has been so documented, in as much as his physical existence. His birth is quite a vague question(with by design)it almost certainly was intentionaly not mentioned. However the so called church, brought it into existence on the date of December 25, the whole point of Christianity is to realize the importance of his death however, thus the first point is made. Men look to his birth, The people who know the "song of the Lamb" mentioned in the beginning statement look to his resurrection from an unjust death as there holiday(there aren' a whole lot of depression casses around easter, and the Easterbunny still hasn't gotten as big as Santa).
