A Muslim Defends Christmas Tree
Dr. Lippschitz
There's no such thing as a "Christmas Tree" and it is not a religious symbol
unlike the menorah. The custom of putting up a tree at the winter holiday
began in Victorian times and was started by Prince Albert who was German
where it was common to put up a tree during the Winter holiday season.
Christians refer to this tree as a "Christmas Tree" since Dec 25th is the
day they commorate the birth of Jesus. But people can decorate the tree with
any symbols they choose to whether it's hindu, muslim or the star of david
or Pagan.

TORONTO, Canada (UPI) -- A Canadian Muslim leader, along with Ontario`s
Premier and several religious groups, yesterday criticized a provincial
judge`s decision to banish the Christmas tree in a Toronto courthouse lobby
because it might offend non-Christians. 'It`s so stupid, I`m at a loss for
words,' said Tarek Fatah, founder of the Muslim Canadian Congress, the
National Post reported.
'The judge should take a trip to the rest of the world. Christmas is
celebrated by Muslims in many countries -- they should ban political
correctness, not Christmas trees. If people are offended [by a Christmas
tree], I`m glad they`re offended,' he added.
The MCC issued a press release calling on Muslims to 'celebrate Christmas
with their Christian cousins and light up Christmas trees to send a message
to the Ontario judge that she is wrong on all counts.'
Ron Banerjee, spokesman for the Hindu Conference of Canada, said 'Hindus
would be highly upset if another group infringed on our right to put up
Hindu symbols in public. I think it`s important that political correctness
not be taken too far so that we`re being crazy about it.'
Premier Dalton McGuinty called the move a 'misunderstanding' of the
significance of having such a multicultural province. 'We enjoy the
wonderful privilege of building a pluralistic, multicultural society,' he
told reporters, noting that Queen`s Park, where there are Christmas trees
aplenty this time of year, also celebrates Jewish, Muslim, Hindu and other
traditions.
The backlash comes after Justice Marion Cohen ordered a Christmas tree at
the Ontario Court of Justice be relocated to a back hallway behind frosted
glass doors -- near the family court desk where the door is adorned with a
Santa Claus poster. Judge Cohen defended the relocation in a letter to staff
this week, which acknowledged people are 'upset' with the decision.
'I am aware the Christmas tree has been placed in the front lobby at
Christmas time for many years,' the letter said. 'I do not think it
appropriate that when the clients of our court enter our courthouse, the
first thing they see is a Christian symbol.
The message to the many non- Christians, who attend our court and are
confronted with this symbol, is that they are not part of this institution.
It does not belong to them. They are different.'
It is unclear if the move was sparked by complaints, and Judge Cohen
declined to take questions.

The Christmas tree predates CHristianity. It was originally a part of
pagan rituals.

But it's associated with xianity today, so its previous meaning is
irrelevant. Swastikas predate Naziism and originally had no racial
symbolism, so feel free to decorate your solstice tree with them.

I hang Christmas ornaments on my Christmas tree. I simply corrected a
mistake posted about its origin.

I guess she didn't realise that 99% of the people up there are not jews lol

Don't worry Bonnie, we'll remember this when those Hasid towns want to bar
non jews from living there while living off gentile taxes, welfare and food
stamps.
We'll also "remind" those Yeshiva farm complexes that they have failed to
pay their property tax for 10 years and then tried to weasel out of paying
:o)
Keep up the good work Bonnie, you're a credit to the jews.
