		 Why do i bother arguing with some of you people. You just dont get what Christmas meens to most people and how insulting it is to see Christmas being turned into a generic holiday. My sister cant even hang a %$%$%$%$ing santa in her classroom at school its gotten so bad. Its not just about the tree calling thing. Its much more than that that sadly many of you just dont understand. or just dont care.

 hahaha i dont know why i care so much! Just one of the many things that annoys me!    I'm a a fairly young guy at 26 and just remember Christmas not to long ago seemed to meen alot more than it does now. I just seems all very water downed in my opinion and way to PC for me. But your right, to me and my fam its still the same but i just see the overall Christmas time experiance outside my house is way different than it was only 10 years ago. I'm just not sure what happened in society and why Christmas in the puplic arena has to be water donwed all of a sudden, and why people seem to be afraid to say Merry Christmas now. Thats all.

 WOW. 
Please don't take this the wrong way, but all this time, i guess since the elections, I figured you were in  your 50's by the way you posted.  
 
Calling it a holiday tree is a nice way to include everyone in this festive time of year.  Why exclude?  Share the love, bro.
