Ah, it begins. A wreath is now a Christian symbol.
Muslims never complain about Christian symbols scattered over the cities and towns. I wonder why not. Perhaps it's just not important to them.

I think Christmas trees came from pagans who worshipped the god Odin.

The origins of the Advent wreath are found in the folk practices of the pre-Christian Germanic peoples who, during the cold December darkness of Eastern Europe, gathered wreaths of evergreen and lighted fires as signs of hope in a coming spring and renewed light

Wreaths are pagan. if the library adds a menorah they owe us a crèche.
