Default Jews Strive To Restore Christmas Trees At Seattle Airport

Christmas is a universal celebration,
heavily celebrated by pagans such as
Chinese and Japanese. It is intended to be
universal.

Christmas is a Christian holiday.



And everyone I know who calls themselves Xian would be
offended at any suggestuion otherwise.


Sounds like you don't know too many Christians.

Who was suing against what display of Xmas trees?


Past experience shows any concessions would swiftly be
followed by new grievances from new people. There would
be no end of it. Saying that all this guy wanted was a
menorah is like saying that all the Palestinians want is
security in their land rights and the release of
prisoners. Satisfy one grievance, and you get a dozen
more, for the real grievance is Christmas itself, as
flavia and dsharavi's remarks reveal. If Christmas is
a strictly Christian holiday, then any observance of it
whatsoever, such as everyone taking a holiday at the
same time, is a grievance and an offense.


So, not going to answer the question then James?
