“trappings of the holiday”

what do trappings have to do with the fact the Church celebrates that Jesus Christ became man, born of a virgin, on December 25th?

i never understood why non-Christians care what Christians do, can you explain that to me?

The trappings have to do with HOW you celebrate. And frankly it’s hilarious to see all these Christians whining about the “war on Christmas” while putting up pagan decorations.

Why do Christians care what non-Christians do? You’re the guys insisting the Yule Tree must be called a Christmas tree even when it’s bought by Jews.
