This has nothing to do with anything .In the short time here I've notice that you and a few others when having nothing to say try to "hijack" threads so others can't give their opinions, you and the others are perfect definitions of a "troll"=An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion. Yup that's you.

I don't recognize easter at all.
Old joke:
Golda Meier, the late former prime minister of Israel, calls up Pope Paul VI, and she's all excited: "your holiness! Your holiness! Cancel Easter, we found the body!"

Finding the body would not make any difference
the reasons are in the Bible.

What relevant information did you add to this thread by posting the definition of a "troll"; which I am not one, btw. And, thanks for the laugh, BB! You never post controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages to provoke an emotional response. . I think the key word in your post is "short". I have this funny mental picture of what you look like, now. Have a great day, BB. Happy trolling!

Christmas is a religious observance. Since the U.S. practices "Freedom of Religion" I see no harm in each of us observing Christmas as our reglious beliefs dictate. Why condemn someone because they put crosses on a tree or use glittered ornaments instead. We all have the right to celebrate it or choose not too. Geez, everybody just simma down.

The history of the Christmas Tree

History of Christmas Trees — History.com Articles, Video, Pictures and Facts


Personally, I would hope that not all of the trees are lighted and using exorbitant
amounts of electricity. I do think 54 is an odd number and wonder how they determine the correct number of trees. Is it by contributing organization? One for each state would make sense...maybe
