I understand that most people in the world are christian and a lot of the holiday skins are more towards christmas but why isn't there a skin just for example. Rabbi Braum where his shield is a torah or something. Rito pls we want religious equality from the skins department.

Riot did (and can excuse themselves with) Christmas skins in their early years because it's not really (nor did it start out as) a Christian holiday.

The Christians took Saturnalia (a grand roman festival) because many people were already celebrating at that time of year.

Jesus wasn't born in winter, gift giving and being nice started was a Roman pantheon tradition, and bringing in a tree during the cold season was a pagan thing.

Santa Claus (St Nicholas) is more mired in warpings and retelling of history and fiction that there's no way he can't be non-secular public domain.

Judaism however, is a real world thing. People believe in it, go to temple, and follow its tenants.

To put it in perspective, Ocarina of Time's Gerudo tribe originally had Islam's Crescent and Star symbol. It was removed for the all the re-releases though, cause IT'S A BAD IDEA TO USE SOMEONE ELSE'S RELIGION FOR MONETARY SHIT.

TL;DR Santa and Christmas are public domain. Judaism has actual people who worship in it. There's a reason any new Winter skins are Snowdown.

Christmas really isn't a Christian holiday anymore. It's just a holiday that some people take to have religious significance. That's the difference, at this point, really.

Christmas has become, for better or worse, a holiday for most people in the western world, regardless of religion. It's like Halloween, or any other generic holiday now. So, Christmas skins are just that: Christmas skins, not Christian skins.

The Christmas skins pertain rather strictly to secular Christmas.

The side of Christmas that evangelical fundamentalists complain about.
