"Should be" seem to me to be completely irrelevant to the arguement before us. We're talking about the way it is, not the way that you wish is would be.
And Infinite_Loser, I'll be that if you ask people what religion a Christmas tree is a symbol of, they'll almost unanimously say Christianity. There will be a few smart folks like here that know and remember its pagan beginnings, but in the 21st Century, I think it's safe to say that it's been completely co-opted by Christianity. Just like the word "gay" has changed meanings, so has a decorated indoor tree.
