[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here and obviously late to the game. But I find it very odd that my Jewish neighbors with a child preparing for her bar mitzvah had a Christmas tree, lights and full gift-giving celebration on the 25th. [/quote] My new plan is just to come onto this thread every few hours & repost the link to Neil Gaimans essay about growing up Jewish & wanting a Christmas tree: http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/features/neil-gaiman-hanukkah-with-bells-on-1203307.html As far as it not working the other way (e.g. Christians celebrating Ramadan), do you really not get how overwhelmingly Christmas pervades US culture, and how those two things are not comparable? I thought previous comments about how Christians in Egypt or India participate in celebrations of Eid or Diwali were great illustrations of how that works.[/quote]
