His birth is NOT less important to us who do not put up Xmas trees maybe it is even more important.

A Christmas Tree is not the season make.
Having a Christmas tree does make the birth of Christ more important to anyone.
It is the swearing off of the celebration in the season that celebrates the birth of Christ, that lowers the importance of his birth.
Not to you as a Christian but to the world that has commercialized and hyjacked the season.
To those that watch you on your life....
What better testimony than to celebrate and let others know that for you and your house you are one that is real in the season....
That can be done with or without a tree....
