They are persecuted. It's the only group who it's ok to mock and ridicule, according to the PC police. It's a hypocritical double standard.

It's ok to mock whatever you like to mock. Make a pork Mohammed...

You can't legislate away attitudes, no matter how much they offend you. You can't legislate the racism out of a racist.

Provided it isn't government policy, and provided it doesn't directly lead to harm, you have no problem.

Where would it stop? The Xtians legislate away a chocolate Jesus, others take offense to the teachings of Jesus and legislate away that, eventually you will have nothing but the sound of silence....

Nobody has offered legislation to get rid of a chocolate Jesus. That is a strawman.

Once again, regardless of where it came from, it is what it is currently used to teach that makes the difference. It teaches the kids to exhibit joy for a holiday that otherwise would remain perpetually boring throughout a long life.

That the Christians were smart enough to incorporate dates and objects from other religions doesn't make them suddenly wrong. It makes them fricking geniuses.

Don't forget that the people were stubborn and wouldn't give them up, so the Christians had to make them "theirs"...in several countries they did try the convert or die, also, though...

It might have to do with the name of the exhibit being a pun. It's a tad disrespectful and really doesn't belong in a museum of fine art (the name being a pun, not the work of art), although, IMO, the artwork is very good. I think if it had not been named my sweet lord, which seems like a bit of a joke, it would have been less of a problem with fundies and others who take offense.
