What colors if any do you deem appropriate for Christmas?

The reason for my post is that choosing to ban red and green because they are perceived as non-inclusive religious colors is absurd. They’re just traditional, non-scriptural colors based on how people decorated for winter observances, be they Christian or pagan. Evergreen foliage such as holly was what was colorful, available and free at that time of year in northern Europe, the origin for many of our Christmas decorating traditions.
