[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand if you’re a blended family but if you’re an observant Jew [b]I find it a bit vulgar that you’d display what is quite obviously become a Christian symbol of the celebration of the birth of Jesus[/b]. Other than some vacuous feelings of envy, what is the real motivation to have a celebratory tree? Why aren’t traditional Jewish celebratory symbols sufficient? Sometimes a tree isn’t simply a tree.[/quote] How many times do you need this explained to you? How much evidence do you need to see that this is not true? Your incorrect, and likely intentionally dishonest assertion will be shown to be wrong again and again. An evergreen tree in the house at the winter solstice is a traditionally pagan practice that predates the Christian celebration of the birth of Christ. If anyone should "find it a bit vulgar", it is pagans who should be angry that you are trying to mis-appropriate their symbol for your purposes. [/quote]
