It is not a religious symbol. It is something that
reminds you guys of a religious symbol - as I said, a
symbol of a symbol. You see the tree and think about
mangers. The fact that you are taking offense shows
that no concessions whatever can ever stop you from
being offended.
The manger is not there because we already had this
thing - people tried putting up a manger *and* a
menorah, and just got a longer queue of people
threatening lawsuits and engaging in lawsuits. So they
gave up on mangers. Now it is happening all over again
with any indications of Christmas whatsoever.
