Why don't most ministers tell their people myth truth about Christmas and Easter being pagan and having nothing to do with Christ at all?

Because people like festivals and holidays and people don't generally care why they are celebrating, or what they are celebrating and it's easier to keep people in the seats at church if you give them something they like. It's the whole reason why Easter and Christmas started in the first place.

How are Christmas and Easter alike?
Both Easter and Christmas celebrate Jesus Christ's life. Christmas is a celebration of His birth and Easter is a celebration of His resurrection.
You took Christ out of Christmas. You took Christ out of the church. What will you take him from next?
Some people use an X in Christmas, because it is a variation on how Christ is spelled in the Greek language. As far as though people who want Christmas to be Only about Santa Claus and Easter to be Only about the Easter Bunny, then you just have to accept the fact that there are people who want to get something for nothing. You be a Christian and Know that Christmas is about the birth of Jesus Christ [with Santa Clause (St. Nicholas) a nice symbol]. You be a Christian and Know that Easter is about the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and the Easter Bunny is also another nice symbol.
