The Annual War over Christmas -- by christians

Isn't it common knowledge that, when converting other cultures, Christians, instead of elimiating, simply adopted the local customs and doctored them up into their own?

A lot of cultural shit goes down this time of year, what with the whole solstice thing."Everybody is having parties already, instead of trying to cancel all these parties, lets just convince them to keep the party, but do it for Jesus instead."Ain't that a brilliant way to forward your religion!

Oh no he dint!Jeremiahs talking specifically about making idols... Christmas trees aren't for worshiping.

Which communities think that tree decorating was invented by christians? But that's just because they got there first, because they were the oldest. Nowadays tho, we're not putting up christmas trees because were maintaining pagan rituals, we're doing it because christians adopted those rituals and injected Jesus into them. So the reason we have a christmas tree today, is because of the christians, ergo Jesus *IS* the reason for the season. (even tho he's not the source of the ritual)Its kinda funny tho, that on one hand we have that Jesus isn't really behind the christmas tree, and on the other hand we have not wanting to call it a christmas tree because Jesus is behind it

There's some videos in the OP that I didn't watch... but apparently there's some neo-cons who were upset that the Christmas Tree was being re-labeled as a "Holiday Tree". The point was that decorating trees was a pagan custom to begin with, so its absurd to be upset that the word "christams" is being removed from a description of it.It like being mad that someone covered your version of a cover-song...
