As many know this, I still want to repeat it.
many aspects of christmas is not even Christian, but rather pagan.
The tree was used in early times to scare away some sort of demons.
Lots of light where brought out because this time of year the days get shorter
and these pagans thought the sun was dissappearing, hence Christmas lights
came about. By the way much of this information must told to me by
a non-jew who researched the matter.
