To a lot of people it is everything to do with religion ,and of course you will believe that description of it being pagan etc,as it makes you feel better,it's just greed at the end of the day,you just cant let the people who believe in it and celebrate it as such,have their big day without wanting a slice and joining in.

It's literally got nothing to do with Freedom of Speech but okay. The advert hasn't been banned, it just won't be shown in cinemas. Good thing too, religion based advertising shouldn't be a thing.

Only a small percentage of people in the UK actually celebrate the holiday for religious reasons and most of them lie about it for a chance to be self righteous and to look down on others.

Christmas day is an excuse from presents, overeating, getting pissed and ruining relationships.

Jesus Christ has nothing to do with it anymore.
