Does Jeremiah even mention Trees?

Well yes he does... But keep in mind that when you divorce a text verse from its context you can make it say just about any old rubbish you want.. ;-)

Jeremiah chapter 10 has a discourse on idols - how they go out and cut down a tree and then craftsmen work on it and they use hammer and nails to stand it up and carry it all over the place and worship it as a god. The msnbc nutbag claimed that verse says Christmas trees are sinful and slammed Sarah Palin for posting family pictures around a - **gasp** - Christmas tree. And there are actually fools on that thread saying that msnbc was correct in its interpretation...

Bingo!
Decorations are safe from the inquisition, as long as they are not worshiped.
Sheeesh, storm in a Tea Pot.
