Answer: When the display contains other seasonal items

Explanation: When a government body displays a religious nativity scene in a public place of a city it can be seen as an imposition of a specific religion. However, if the display contains other seasonal features such as a christmas tree it is accepted by the Supreme Court because it is believed that it is representing the holiday instead of supporting a religion.
