What if somebody said to a Jewish person "Hey can you pass me the eight candle holder?"

Christmas trees never had anything to do with Christ and were probably a pagan thing anyway.

The merchandising is good for the economy and being Christmas is about the birth of Christ and not about presents under a tree, calling the tree a holiday tree is fine with me.

Example- I have lost my hair and am very comfortable being bald. I have been bald for 20 years. Now all of a sudden some PC dumb ass wants to label me folically challenged.

All I am saying is leave well enough alone. This is another wide open shot at liberals using PC to divide our country by race, religion, economic class and gender in order to implement control with big government. Remember Political Correctness was invented at Berkeley College and remains on the top of the agenda at most universities.

There is no Christmas tree in the Bible, nor is it a part of the Christian faith.

The tree is a pagan object from another history that makes for some great commercial activity. It's good for the holiday, seems to be a holiday tree. Never has been a Christmas tree. There is the fig tree Christ cursed, the one used to make his cross and the one Judas hung himself with. Outside of that, no so called Christmas tree in Christianity.
