Paving the way for the acceptance of Germany’s new overlords.
“Fee TV spread: Origin of our Christmas tree in the Koran,” translated from “Gebühren-TV verbreitet: Ursprung unseres Christbaums im Koran,” Exxpress, December 14, 2023 (thanks to Medforth):
Climate idiots have declared war on it – now a fee broadcaster is also upping the ante against our Christmas tree: According to the Koran, it was a palm tree under which Isa (Jesus in Arabic) was born, summarizes the public broadcaster NDR for its readers.
Maryam – Arabic for Mary – is surprised by contractions and leans against a tree. And there in the shadows Isa – Arabic for Jesus – is born. However, the tree was a palm tree, the fee sender goes looking for clues. Apparently with the aim of no longer even associating our customs with Christianity, the origin of the Christmas tree is to be found in the Koran.
By the way, Vienna’s first Christmas tree was put up on the Hoher Markt on Christmas Eve in 1814. Fanny von Arnstein brought the custom with her from northern Europe.
“The day before yesterday there was a very large Christmas tree or Christmas tree festival at the Arnsteins, according to Berlin custom. There were State Chancellor Hardenberg, State Councilors Jordan and Hoffmann, Prince Radziwill, Mr. Bartholdy, and all the relatives of the house. All invited people received gifts or souvenirs from the Christmas tree. According to Berlin custom, strange songs were sung…Prince Hardenberg had endless fun,” says a memory from the time.
Later it became customary in Catholic households to celebrate Christmas under the Christmas tree. In 1829 there was already a Christmas tree seller at the Schottentor, and in 1851 the Am Hof square was said to have resembled a forest in the run-up to Christmas.

If the tree is islamic in origin, NDR, why are so many muslims throwing tantrums about Christmas trees and associated traditions, shrieking that it’s all haram? So full of hatred for Christians and Christianity that you can’t be bothered with a minor fact check, NDR.

Plus a bunch for Truth.

Do fir tree even grow in the ME, apart from maybe in Lebanon’s mountains? Quite far from the alledged Bethlehem

Well I suppose it is not difficult to understand bearing in mind Moses and Abraham were Arab/ Muslim, that Jews had NO connection or historical connection with Eretz Israel ( U N passed Resolution confirming that) and according to Muslims, Jesus was Muslim.. All of which doesn’t explain why it took Allah to bring his Prophet Muhammad forward until 650m years later to announce Islam, but I suppose facts like that don’t matter ?
Btw, apparently no artefacts of Jewish origin have even been found in what was Israel, so Muslims/ UN say.

In this “modern” society, Whites are not allowed to “appropriate” the dress, the hair styles, the language, of Blacks and other poc. As if we all needed their “permission” to have a braid, or scarf or whatever one may have worn in times past.
However, mozlums are, not just allowed to appropriate customs,, belief, names, etc. from the Bible, which translates to taking from the Jews and Christians, but they are being encouraged in their **theft** as if they really are special people.
The Bible, which was written long before the book of demon filth, says that Jesus was born and laid in a manger….a place where domestic animals were kept and fed.
It says nothing about trees, Mary in the shade, leaning against a palm. Nothing.
But, mozlums are being hoisted up above everyone else, above every Truth, in order for them to rule over the rest of us. islam is a beast and it is being allowed to devour everything in its path.
for now.
BTeboe says
Like the majority of the Qur’an this fable is a fake as can be.
FYI says
A funny thing about the koran is that despite allah’s insistence that “allah is the knower of ALL things”
in koran 2:29 it is obvious from the Scientific errors ,the EPIC Theology fail of koran 5:116 and the violation of all the Laws given to Moses in scripture{which allah insists he gave to Moses koran 2:87}it is obvious allah is NOT the knower of all things as he boasts but is provably NOT omniscient and so the koran comes from a HUMAN source as these errors are HUMAN.
But never mind:Logic and reason is not required when dealing with the koran’s defenders.
If you think Christmas Trees are in the quran well let me tell you that there there is recipie for eggnog too and Christmas Pudding in the quran too.
I have square tires for sale..
࿗Infidel࿘ says
What if the tree Mary was near was a Gharqad tree? Would muslims still claim that the quran deserves the credit for its origin?
Wellington says
Muslims and non-Muslim sycophants regularly try to appropriate most everything to Islam. It’s pathetic, risible and rooted in a great deal of ignorance. I often detect as well a profound unconscious insecurity.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Yeah, where are those woke jihadists against cultural appropriation when one needs them?
Westman says
Islam: “We’ll say and do anything to connect Islam to the Talmud and Bible, to show our legitimacy as the superior, superseding religion, while simultaneously declaring the illegitimacy of Christianity and Judaism.”
It’s not working. No apostles submitted to Allah nor did Jesus accept violent conquest as a method of expansion. Islam is the complete, stark, opposite of the new beatitudes espoused by Jesus in Mathew 5:
3Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
4Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
5Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the Earth.
6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be satisfied.
7Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
8Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
9Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called the Sons of God.
10Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
11Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
12Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you…
Who more than the followers of Islam, “..insult you(Christians), persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.”
The “Johnny come lately” Islamic denial of Jesus as a Savior, changing his character, and the clumsy integration of Jesus into the Quran, speaks for itself as a total fabrication.
Islam stands alone with its brutish actions and carnal rewards. It began as pirates of the desert and now also lives uneasily among wealthy unbelievers it cannot conquer, and to whom it has nothing to offer.
I hope everyone enjoys their Christmas Celebration regardless of personal beliefs. Whatever attributes of Jesus we can express in our own lives, loving our neighbor, the Golden Rule, can only improve our lives.

Some say the Sermon on the Mount was the best thing ever written. I would love to have heard Him say those life-giving words.
Thanks for posting them here.
James Lincoln says
I’ve had that very same thought, somehistory.
somehistory says
I try sometimes to imagine it.
Envy is a bad thing, James, but when I think of the privileges the Apostles had….
Perhaps one day, we will have similar ones.
libertyORdeath says
Muslims claiming Christian history as their own? What a shocker!
The sad thing is that the kids are extremely susceptible to this propaganda. If you can believe a man is a woman who can get pregnant, Muslim lies are NOTHING.
BA says
How absurd. The tree is thousands of years old tradition from Northern Europe. This is absolute insanity. Like the inbreds it originates with.
Diane Flynn says
CHRISTmas trees are banned from public display in France b/c mo slums are offended by their representation and meaning.
It is well documented history in Germany that a missionary monk/priest of Britain (Wales Welsh land) that converted druids in England and then sent as a the Teutonic (deutsch) in what is now Germany whose name was Wynfrid and later he took the name BONIFAZIUS/Boniface when ordained a priest. (Anno Domini 673-754).
In the year 723 AD in a village called Geismar (near city of Fulda) there was a failure of crops, and disease affecting animals and this led to terrible famine. The people there had believed in the Norse gods and offered sacrifices to Thor. On December 24, the Chief-tan was going to offer his own son at the great sacred oak of Thor, a massive tree. Just as the druid (tree worshiping) priest was about to strike the boy’s head with a stone hammer at an altar to Thor, Boniface arrived with several Germanic new Christian convert followers. Boniface explained that this blood sacrifice of the prince was not necessary. For GOD the Almighty had already sent His own Son, Jesus the Christ, who gave His precious & holy blood and life, on a cross made of wood, died, and was resurrected for the forgiveness of all the world’s peoples’ sins to redeem their eternal souls!”
Then Boniface felled the massive tree
(the Great Oak of Thor). As it fell to the ground, it shattered in large pieces. The bushes and smaller trees it fell upon were destroyed- except for a small evergreen pine. It’s green leaves/needles were the color of new life, it’s top points towards the heavens. The surrounding crowd was awe struck.
Boniface turned to the crowd and said, “This little shall be your holy tree tonight. It’s wood of peace is what you use to build your homes. It’s evergreen is a symbol of eternal life, see how it’s top points towards the Creator, and it’s triangular shape reminds us of the Holy Trinity?
Let this tree be known as the Tree of the Christchild/Christkind (Christ is Greek for the promised anointed chosen one] Gather around it, not only outdoors, but in your homes. There you can share rights of kindness and gifts of love; and have it as a symbol of goodness.”
Later, the wood from the fallen oak was used on the site to build the first Christian chapel dedicated to Saint Peter. St Boniface is buried at the cathedral in Fulda.
In German it is still called ,,der CHRISTbaum- the Christ tree.
In the 1750s German immigrants to Pennsylvania and Ontario brought the simple, and most beloved tradition to the Americas. Queen Victoria & Prince Albert made it popular again in England. It was revived by German heritage families during the Civil War, and continued westwards.
Merry CHRISTmass dear Robert!
May GOD continue to bless you and the work you do, as well as your family and friends!
Most sincerely,
Diana
