Our Holiday Tree

I was raised in a Jewish home. By the age of 11, however, I realized that I was an atheist, and was the first boy in my family since Biblical times (according to my dad) to NOT have a bar-mitzvah. My siblings did, and profited handsomely...although one recently "found Jesus" and the other is a practicing Catholic. Go figure. Anyway...my faith (or lack thereof) has never wavered. So, being raised Jewish, but living an atheist life...what on earth is my house doing with a holiday tree?

They're pretty. 'Nuff said. Of course, ours doesn't have any angels, or mangers, or such religious decorations. We just really love the tree, decorated with festive colors, pop-culture ornaments, and pretty lights.
