Christmas trees. They're not jewish, muslim, etc., they're a Christian tradition...or Pagan.
Call them Christmas trees or Pagan trees. Both are accurate.
I say Merry Christmas to Christians, I wish Happy Hannukah to my Jewish friends during Hannukah, etc. Why would I say "merry Christmas" to a Muslim? I wish my Muslim friend "Happy Ramadan" during Ramadan (which, BTW is an appropriate greeting).
That's what I do. And it doesn't bother me one bit (some get up in arms saying "Christmas is gone"...but honestly, it's alive and well....look around....).
