A church or private home? Sure.

So no Christmas displays anywhere but a private home or church? You haven’t clarified if you mean a nativity scene or things like tree or stockings or a sleigh and reindeer. Do both types of decorations bother you?

Yes to both your questions.

So Christmas displays make you uncomfortable, even Santa and reindeer and Christmas trees and lights, and definitely a nativity scene. And you are uncomfortable if a business has a Christmas display, even if it’s lights and stockings for employees?

Yes, that’s right.

What do you do on Christmas?

Same things as I do on Sundays - work out, Netflix, read, do laundry, cook, go for a walk, etc.

Are you a JW? They don’t celebrate Christmas. I don’t think they like lights and decorations either.

Nope.

Yes, that’s right.

NP. It’s not un-American to not be a Christian.

It’s unamerican to say that Christmas displays make you “uncomfortable.”

No wait. In this day and age, it might be 100% American to say that. I’m surprised she isn’t offended too.

Why disturbing?

Like they’re an extremist.

So you like to stereotype people. Do you judge people negatively who have a US flag out front?

What do you decorate with on Nov 1?

But pp said she’s uncomfortable with all of it - the trees and Santa and stockings. Aren’t those the secular parts?
