I saw that too. I was thinking why didn't they just sing "neutral" songs like Jingle Bells or Winter Wonderland. LOL

This reminds me of something that happened in my city. Our city sponsored this festival called Winterfest, complete with Christmas tree. In an attempt to not offend, they called it "the community tree". LOL. People, both religious and non-religious, flooded the mayor's office with complaints on that. A few days later, the mayor apologized saying that from this point on, it will be called a Christmas tree.
