Your tone suggests you think this will be news to us, LOL, so I’m guessing it must be new info to you. Well, here’s something more. Most of the decorations do have pagan roots. So going pagan with the decorations is a lot easier than you may realize.
Anybody keeping count of how many variations on this question have been asked so far? I know I see it at least once a day.

I am pagan, and I do NOT hate xtians. Please speak for yourself, not an entire religion. I personally have nothing against nativity scenes. Everyone is entitled to celebrate their holidays as they like, no matter what they're celebrating.
Christmas celebrations have pagan roots stemming from the pagan solstice celebrations, its true, but Christmas is still a Christian holiday, not a pagan one.

I would rather speak for myself on such things. I am a Pagan and personally don't care who celebrates what or how they do it. As for decorating with Pagan decorations... they already do! Everything about Christmas, except Saint Nicholas, is Pagan. It was once a day that celebrated by different Pagan religions as the Birth Date of a Son of God. Osiris/Horus, Apollo, I believe Dionysus/Bacchus was also born on that day, as well as Mithra. The only thing they changed, was the name of the Son of God born on that day.

What a tirade! The first answer has a good idea: describe your ideal Pagan holiday scene.
And speak for yourself. This Pagan does not hate the Christian Christmas.

Then stop celebrating it. The holiday completely...and that means the buying and gift giving and the partying as well.
The problem is, the economy would take a downswing because many stores in this country make 30% of their sales during the holiday season.
I dislike the commercialism of Christmas anyway. I would still celebrate the birth of Christ as I always do.

I'm really sorry that you hate Christians and Christmas so much.
Yes, just out of curiosity, I would like to know what the scene would be too.
And I also noticed that you seem to use an awful lot of exclamation points in most of the things you write. Like in your other complaint about Christians decorating their houses.

Do you have an appropriate seasonal display?
Whatever scene you replaced it with would have to not violate any laws of the city, county, state, or country.
So, what would you recommend?
BTW: Does colored lights or depiction of a fat man in a red suit bother you?
You know that the current depiction of Santa is from Coca Cola.

As a Pagan....I find your attitude towards Christians to be repulsive.
This is a season of Love and Light, yet you embrace just the opposite with your Jr. High Name calling.
Remember Karma......what you put out will come back three fold...and with your projection of hate, I would not want to be you when Karma comes around.

And why would Christians care?
Christmas isn't a "pagan" holiday. At this point it's a secular holiday.
For Christians, it's a Christian holiday with some fun cultural trappings borrowed from pre-Christian European paganism. That's the way Christianity has always worked. The technical term is "inculturation."
As far as public displays go: when "pagans" are more than a tiny minority of disaffected and puerile rebels besotten with New Age philosophy, maybe you'll have the clout to start putting up public displays. Of course, you're more than welcome to do so on your own property as it is. Good luck with that.
As to what I do on my own property, or how I choose to celebrate the holiday, mind your own business.

Then why was it named after Christ???
We do decorate everything with pagan decorations. It's called trees and wreaths and Christmas ornaments, etc.
I think you might be a disgrace to pagans. . .
