Only bad Christians celebrate Christmas

After settling in the New World the Pilgrims did not celebrate Christmas. They knew that it was a pagan holiday. The Christmas Tree was specifically forbidden in the Bible.

² This is what the LORD says:
"Do not learn the ways of the nations
or be terrified by signs in the sky,
though the nations are terrified by them.

³ For the customs of the peoples are worthless;
they cut a tree out of the forest,
and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel.

⁴ They adorn it with silver and gold;
they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.

⁵ Like a scarecrow in a melon patch,
their idols cannot speak;
they must be carried
because they cannot walk.
Do not fear them;
they can do no harm
nor can they do any good."

-- Jeremiah 10:2-5
