Christmas Day is a Federal/State Holiday in the United States, and is celebrated by 96% of Americans (80% of Americans are Christians).
Christmas is celebrated because of the birth of Christ 2,000 year's ago (Even according to the federal website over holidays).
Since we have 'separation of religion and state', should Christmas decorations be allowed and be put in public places, such as city parks, city halls, state buildings, federal buildings?
Sure, as long as muslim, sikh, buddhist, pastafarian and all others are allowed as well no matter how uncommon. Contrary to xian dogma, America isn't a xian nation.

Actually, it should be up to the individual state and/or local city to determine if it should be allowed. That is, if we actually want to follow the Constitution.

Xians should NOT be given any priviledge over any other faith or non-faith on any level of government.
Definitely. Even if you're opposed to religion or not Christian, let's be honest, Christmas in America is about consumerism more than it is about Jesus Christ.
As long as symbols or displays representing other religions(or lack thereof) are allowed.
