So - actually quite fitting. 25th December marks the Babylonian mid winter feast of the rebirth of the sun god - Mithras - a type of satan.
Equally don't worry about the tree - God said through Jeremiah
Jeremiah 10:2-5
“Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven,
For the Gentiles are dismayed at them. For the customs of the peoples are futile;
for one cuts a tree from the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with nails and hammers so that it will not topple. They are upright, like a palm tree, and they cannot speak;
Christmas is not a Christian feast its a satanic pagan one!
I've been saying this for a couple of years but the Christians don't like giving up their little gods. Christmas and Easter rank high. His wrath is on all who celebrate.
Stopping is very difficult, Christmas appeals to our senses lighrs, music, decorations, along with the peer pressure to conform. Easter is much the same. My wife and I have been accused of being Jewish by our own family, because we have shunned Christmas and celebrate passover.
The 'spirit of Christmas' is one which appeals to our senses - it's sensual, it is not real and it is very transitory. Its also a time to spend huge amounts of money for no good reason, eat and drink to serious excess. There is nothing of Christ in all of this - indeed the one who appeals to the senses is satan - lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride.
Finally and think on this if I said to my second wife 'Dear I know your birthday is not on x date but that it the birthdate of my previous lover so I'll celebrate your birthday on her birthday - OK?' of course it wont be, Before Christ came and saved us we were enthralled to satan, and 25 December celebrates a satan type character - yet we say to Jesus - 'We'll celebrate your birthday on the date of our previous lover!' is that really OK?

Indeed so. The "spirit" of Christmas is a thing. You can feel it during the season. All the allure and coziness. Its almost tangible.
