I know churches that celebrate and decorate without trees. i know its what a persons comfortable with but lights, wreaths, gifts same origin as the tree.

Re: IM slipping, I know you guys are shocked...in

Some time after I was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ in late October 1955 I started attending Bethel Tabernacle (UPC) in Racine, WI. During the Christmas season they had a large Christmas tree on the platform.

As a child I attended the Congregational Church in Union Grove, WI. They had a large Christmas tree so I was not surprised to see one at the UPC church in a neighboring town. I just thought all churches did that at Christmas.

The tree is only an idol if I worship it. My favorite Chinese restaurant has a huge statue of Buddha. I don't eat as unto Buddha or embrace his philosophy by eating there.

Re: IM slipping, I know you guys are shocked...in

Sorry, TS. I meant to quote Monty.

As to your post, don't confuse him with the facts.

Most everything has some kind of pagan undertone. Most people have no idea about the origins of Christmas, Easter, VD, the days of the week, our calendar, etc

I think this post contradicts what I wrote last yr. or two years ago. Anyway. Christmas isn't about Jesus for me. It's about spending time with family and friends. It so happens that the only time everyone comes together is at Christmas and Easter.
