"Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays"?

[Wooden_Go]

"Merry Christmas". Before is was politically correct, I lived in a non-christian neighborhood of Chicago. I used the "Happy Holidays" to be nice. But when it started to be a big deal, screw 'em. It's Merry Christmas from me. Don't like it..TS.

Merry Christmas to all you fine folks..................

i wished my friends/co-workers merry christmas. if i know they dont celebrate christmas, then happy holidays. theres no reason to be uptight. life is too short for that.

i just wish, those who expect others to say merry christmas to them should make an effort to wish others a merry 'what ever' on their special days as well. treat others the way you want to be treated. this way we can actually appreciate and care for another. the whole point of these special days are to teach us to be respectful and courteous.

its too late for merry christmas, so have a happy new year (and holiday for those who have dec 31st off, remember to eat cake, its my son's birthday that day )

Happy Holidays.

I'm 42 years old. Christmas is my favorite holiday.

The only people I've ever heard complain at Christmas are Christians or old conservatives whining and complaining about "Political Correctness" gone wild this or that. Goodness, it's tiresome.

Personally, I've never once heard a Muslim, Jew or Atheist etc. complain about Christmas, or ask to be greeted in a certain way at Christmas time, or get offended by "Merry Christmas". Never!

But, I have personally probably heard a hundred Christians complain and whine and express an imagined fear of losing their beloved holiday. I think it is time to give it a rest! Nobody is trying to steal Christmas. There is no war on Christmas. Christmas came once again on December 25th at my house! It will come every year, no matter what, for the rest of my life. Other people celebrate different things.To everyone, Happy Holidays!
