Really.  Are big fucking pine trees a big thing in Palestine?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tree

Quote:A Christmas tree is a decorated tree, usually an evergreen conifer such as spruce, pine, or fir or an artificial tree of similar appearance, associated with the celebration of Christmas. The modern Christmas tree was developed in early modern Germany (where it is today called Weihnachtsbaum or Christbaum) with predecessors that can be traced to the 16th and possibly 15th century, in which devout Christians brought decorated trees into their homes.[1][2] It acquired popularity beyond Germany during the second half of the 19th century, at first among the upper classes


How fucking jesus-y.

I can see why the xmas nazis would be upset, though.

Yep that's the definition of a Christmas tree. So just call it what it is. A Christmas tree. I don't care if someone calls it a holiday tree but they're just doing it for uneccessary political correctness.

I'm aware that that tradition of the Christmas tree doesn't go back to the times of Jesus. The tradition of Christmas probably doesn't go back to or have much to do with Jesus these days. I know loads of Muslims who celebrate Christmas the same way I do as an atheist. And they call Christmas trees Christmas trees. Because they're Christmas trees.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
