"I am curious, which religion do you practice that considers Christmas trees pagan?"
I was raised Christian but am not much of a "practicioner". Still, as far as the season goes, I tend to follow the Christian culture and traditions. I abhor Satan Claus, who's commercialization of Christmas I consider sinful. Christmas is no longer "about" birth of Jesus, but getting presents.
I don't really have anything against Christmas trees ( they make GREAT fish brushpiles!!), but find it amusing that they are so attached to the Christian holiday, given their non-Christian roots.
-yes, the commercialization that excludes Jesus Christ is ungood.
:)
Great commercial! I had never seen it before.
