I've been laughing for days at the people who think that calling a decorated evergreen a "Holiday tree" rather than a "Christmas tree" somehow denigrates the Savior.

They could take a lesson from the Whoos down in Whooville. If they really believed that Christ was the reason for the season then you could remove all of the ribbons, the bows, the packages and trees and the day would still exist. Of course it wouldn't because it's not in holy scripture...which is exactly why you need all the trappings to give it a...semblance of authority. In my opinion.

It's not denigration of the Savior. It's a general attack on Christmas and Christian identity. I laugh at all the idiots that think that calling it a "Christmas tree" is somehow denigrating to tyrannical religious minority bullies.
