It is definitly wrong to be a jew and celebrate christmas by having a christmas tree. If you have a christmas tree it means that you are celebrating christmas which is all about the birth of christ!!!this means that you a JEW believes in jeuses!!!!You can't do that!
I think that jews and everyone around the world are being brainwashed by christmas!!!We here christmas songs playing in the background in shopping centers and everything on tv is about christmas! So when you come home and celebrate chanukah all the songs in your head are catchy christmas songs!!!
So i kind of don't blame you wanting to have a christmas tree after all this brainwash!!!
But it is still wrong to do it!!!
But hey it is your decision and if you want more good advise ask your local Rabbi!
Good luck!
P.S when I was talking about the brain wash I don't want anyone to take it the wrong way and accuse me of saying that christianity is wron and bad because I'm not and if I offended anyone I am deeply sorry!!! all religions are good!!!

A Christmas tree has nothing to do about the birth of Christ.
The Easter Bunny has nothing to do with Paschal Sunday.
Christmas is celebrated only in preparation for the Resurrection of the Lord.

I don't see why it would be wrong. You must be worrying about what others are thinking about it. You are certainly not hurting anyone, so if you enjoy displaying your "chanukah bush" then go for it.

No you should have a Hanukkah bush and decorate your place with blue and white lights.And put out a knish for Rabbi Claus who comes down the chimney in a blue suit instead of red.All Americans and others should have fun with it.

My beloved husband, who is an observant Jewish man, when still married to his late wife, liked Christmas trees so well that one Christmas he and his late wife put one up...and they didn't take it down for 14 years!
Go ahead, dear, have your tree!

Do what you feel like doing. I never felt a need to have a tree, but then, I haven't celebrated either one for a long time.

I don't see anything wrong with that. Though I do think you need to remember that it's the Festival of Light, don't you think?
May Peace and Blessings be upon all of you.
