@HeerJeet My wife is Sikh and grew up in N. BC. They always had the tree, etc. She finds it odd how people find "Merry Christmas" offensive.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@SWGoldman I mean secular Xmas music is fine but worshipful music (of any faith) is rooted in a richer cultural mythos. -
@HeerJeet Secular Christmas music has a pretty rich mythos. Look at multiple versions of Santa mythology.
