Because, it's the "politically correct" way to handle it. Just calling it a Christmas tree isn't fair to all religions - or so certain advocacy groups would let you know. Hence, the reason for calling it a "Holiday" tree.

I say F* 'em. it's always been known as a Christmas tree all during my 47 years on this earth - regardless of my religious beliefs. i'm not about to change now at this point so I can be all "Mr. Feel Good Politically Correct".

Over and out.

Maybe they aren't Christian. Many people celebrate Christmas that are not Christian. In reality, Christmas is a pagan holiday, and you "devout" Christians are beyond moronic for celebrating it.

Actually, it isn't a Christmas tree - that was the politically correct thing to call it back (way back) in the day.

It's a Saturnalia tree.

Damn Romans.

If I don't know a person's 'issues', I'll say, "Have a good Holiday Season". Just to be safe. But 'Holiday Tree'.? Fuck that. If 'Christmas Tree' offends or pisses you-off.?. Then fuck you, go eat shit.

Happy Holidays Everybody :)

Hey, Dummy. I said "regardless of my religous beliefs". I'm actually an agnostic. Yet, you still called me a "devout" Christian. WTF? Comprehend what others have written before responding. Thank you.

Same reason Christmas parties are called "holiday parties" and the Christmas bonus is now a "year end bonus".

To be fair we should pc ever religous activity.
we should celebrate the 8 days of holiday for the jewish and
the month of holiday fasting for the muslims. Easter sunday can be holiday sunday.
I don't really care but if you are going to capitalize from a holiday you should at least call it what it is.
