This seems like a random question but it is a legitiamate one. Every year "Christ" is taken out of Christmas more and more. I work at the mall and I am not even allowed to say "Merry Christmas" I have to say "Happy Holidays" or something. They are calling Christmas trees "Holiday Trees". It is even getting to the point where some people want to change the name of the holiday all together.
My question is this:
1. To the millions of people who do not celebrate Christmas in the traditional sense (Jesus' Birthday), why celebrate it at all?
2. Why do you then get so offended by the word "Christmas"?
How comes I don't hear anyone complaining about Ramadan or Yom Kippur?
3. What difference does it make if it is called a "Christmas tree"
As you can see all these questions have the same theme, so answer in your own way!
