[quote=Anonymous]NP. As an agnostic who was raised Christian, I have no horse in this race. But I think it’s clear that Christmas trees are cultural and not religious. They have more in common with Queen Victoria than Jesus. There are lots of Christians in the world who do not put up trees at Christmas because it is not part of their cultural tradition to do so, and it is not a form of worship in any way. There are also plenty of non-Christians who have adopted the Christmas tree tradition in Asia where the holiday has been appropriated in non-religious ways. It’s similar to how Mexicans eat tamales at Christmas. It’s part of their cultural celebration, but not a religious belief or practice. But I don’t care whether anyone does or doesn’t have a tree in their house, or what religion they practice.[/quote]
