Yep. Pluralistic.
plu·ral·ism
n. 1. The condition of being multiple or plural.
2. a. A condition in which numerous distinct ethnic, religious, or cultural groups are present and tolerated within a society.
b. The belief that such a condition is desirable or socially beneficial.

Of course, one of the tenets of Sikhism is the tolerance of other religions. As Guru Nanak said when he started the whole thing up: "There is no Hindu; there is no Muslim. All are human beings."

Yes, when people are open minded enough to embrace each other's spiritual beliefs and cultural differences, then it's great. Shutting off other people for race, religion or social traditions would be only a loss to the shutter-offer.
If a muslim, buddhist, hindu or who-ever, invites me into their home, I am interested to learn and enjoy the cultural experience they live. If I were to turn away from such an experience and welcome would certainly be a chance lost.

I know Jews who do Christmas. It's a bit hard to avoid to be fair.

If I remember correctly, it was "anything in black".
Which is a shame because I got him something in blue and white from the Albion shop and now I'm going to have to take it back.
Quite right about the pluralism. During Ramadan, do all you can to be invited to one of the Iftar buffets that are held by Muslims once the sun's gone down. Fantastic events for family and friends. It will make you aware of the fact that, for the vast majority across the world of all religions, all people really want is a happy and peaceful life.
