The problem of course is that Christ is NOT the reason for the season. Christmas is not even CLOSE to the only holiday is the holiday season. There's Thanksgiving, Hanukah, New Years and tons of other little holidays. Christ is the reason for YOUR version of the season, but you aren't the only shooper at Target or Lowes or any other of the THOUSANDS of retailers that use "Happy Holidays" because they know they've got a vast variety of customers. Oh and the whole story is based on LIES anyway, Target and Lowes both have TONs of CHRISTMAS trees. Don't boycott because of lies told to you.

Then what other group besides Christian uses a "holiday tree" which had to be renamed because the name Christmas offended them.

Well given that the Christmas tree was stolen from Norse practices and was renamed when adopted by Christians I guess that day came several HUNDRED years ago.
