You are not concerned that deification has a pagan history, nor are you concerned that it involves pagan practices.

You also are not interested in how this teaching is practiced in the Local Church (MOTA, etc).
Yet with Christmas it is not about how it is defined. Nor is it good enough that some practice this holiday in a way that is not pagan. Nope, if one Christian, anywhere on this earth goes home to their Christmas tree and unwraps gifts, then the practice is condemned as pagan.
Are you so blind that you cannot see your hypocrisy?

Wait a minute, I thought Christmas was supposed to be about Christ's birthday. So why people are unwrapping gifts for
themselves? How is that not hypocritical. And would you let someone hang a pentagram up in your home or church? If not then you are also hypocritical because why should you allow one pagan symbol such as a decorated tree and not any pagan symbol? I think you know in your heart you would not accept a pentagram symbol in your home or church but you would gladly accept a Christmas tree because you have been taught that it means something Christian when in fact it has been as pagan as a pentagram all along.
