    Holiday Tree or Xmas Tree?

    Seems that this year has a lot of people protesting the fact that the tree is referred to as a Christmas Tree, and not a Holiday Tree.

    I think its ridiculous, because most of these protestors are atheists and are protesting because of their own insecurities, and its even more ironic because a Christmas tree actually isnt a reglious symbol, and is part of a traditional secular holiday as well. Its a pagan symbol...same as a wreath.

    Very rarely do you see a Jewish person complaining about a Christmas tree. Why? Because the fact that its called a Christmas Tree most likely doesnt offend them. But someone has to come out and try to change it because they think it offends a certain group, when in fact it doesnt.

    Like George Carlin once said..."ugly is ugly, and Christmas is Christmas"

    Yeah we have a pole and call it festivest :D

    Ok if you dont belive in something why would someone go around trying to convice others its not true? unless they are unsecure? Thats just what it looks like it to me.....when people go around protesting about the Bible or anything haveing to do with it.
