Does having a Christmas Tree in public really offend anyone???
I see this every year that people get offended that there is a Christmas Tree in like a town square, a public office, etc.
It is now becoming more "politically correct" to say happy Holidays and saying "Merry Christmas" is becoming offensive. Isn't that a bit silly?
It amazes me that people actually protest to have Christmas Trees removed from these places saying it offends them. How does a Tree offend you?

No.[/quote] Have you had some person(s) that knocked on your door before. And they want to talk to you about their religion? I was wondering if they are the same people that want to remove Christmas Trees.[/quote]You have the right to remove said people from your property, and usually they do. And usually when they are trying to convert, they aren't taking anything from anyone besides moments of their time. Taking away the Christmas tree from public and commercial domain is taking away a symbol that many people enjoy. So in that way, they are different. They both, however, are inconsiderate of others' beliefs to some degree, usually. [Edited on 11.30.2012 4:48 AM PST]
