Exactly. What is Christian about chopping down an evergreen and put it in your house? That's a pre-christian fertility symbol to invoke the turn of the solar year and the next agricultural season.
I really don't think you could. This is a time of year that the entire country recognizes as "holiday season", so there's a good chance your entire family can take off of work and all be together at that time of year.
I meant it more as in " this holiday season could be any time of the year".
Obviously we can only get off work and meet on something like a holiday, but it doesn't matter to me what the holiday is about, or when it is, as long as i get a day off it's all the same to me.
Edit: Also, that's why i said
"most people seem to like this particular season"
By most people i meant society. We as a society decided this is "holiday season", but it could be any other time of the year and it'd make little difference to me.
I'd argue the most correct way to address that is to roll your eyes and move on without engaging and then laugh about it later. And do everything in your power to keep these kinds of people away from having any power over you.
