White Christmas was written by a Jewish man. It remains the only song that is not included in in Christmas music books. If anyone wants the score they must buy it separately.

It's a classic. I'm not a Crosby fan, but when I hear this song it reminds me of the happy times as a youth. Some people turn their beliefs into a crusade. Fortunately most of us aren't that way.
I have an atheist friend. He is a hardcore liberal and as anti-religion as you can get. Yes we are friends. We served together and have other mutual interests.
He is one that will turn his beliefs into a crusade. He is against christmas decorations of any kind on public property LOL Yes he hates those Christmas trees on telephone poles, nativity scenes on municipal lawns etc.
Odd but he has no issue with double time, holiday pay on Christmas. He also didn't mind sharing christmas dinner with us this year.
Some atheists turn their beliefs into a religion all its own. He is one of them. Great guy, just a little twisted.

"I'm dreaming of a black Christmas
Quite unlike the ones I used to know
Where the treetops do not glisten and
Children do not listen to sleigh bells ringing in the snow


I'm dreaming of a black Christmas
With every Christmas card that I throw in the trash
May your days be gloomy and dark
And may all your Christmases be black"


I have another version, but the lyrics are likely to offend someone and posting it might violate the TOS.
