((Missquestions))
So are you his girlfriend, or are you his PET - are you allowed on his furniture - or are you merely his "servant?" 
Geesh, that comment alone would have set me off. I'm not religious and don't celebrate Christmas, but if my husband told me I was not ALLOWED to decorate the house for a holiday - I'd wait for him to walk out the door, then decorate it from floor to ceiling.  He would most likely do the same to me if I tried to dictate his life. 
It sounds like a petty argument that would carry huge red flags for me. A few decorations around the house will not burn his skin or take away his Jewish identity, but it will provide you with some comfort. Why does he have a problem with you feeling comfortable? 
I hope you'll be able to work this out with him without having to sacrifice your soul (giving up what you love) for him.  Over time, it could turn into resentment.
