If a tree is cut down, does anyone care?

Not at all particularly, even if its some religious symbol held by the local population as some \"miracle.\"

As an atheist myself, I could care less- though this is an attack against what is quickly becoming a religious minority in Europe and Britain.

I know some atheists are militant in nature- but they don't attack churches or anyone else for that matter.

It could be the act of some crazy man on his own- but it is likely this was done in a deliberate act of religious duty.

I'll leave you guessing.

No, because a new tree is usually planted to replace it.

Youre confusing atheist with tree-hugging hippies

What an incredibly lame thing to do.

Atheists care about christmas trees, well the corporate thugs do, anyway. If there's no more christmas, they won't make the extra money.
