A lot of families who are not religious still treat it as a major holiday with decorations, gifts, etc. People who are Jewish or otherwise non-believers in Christ treat it as a day to go to the movies or otherwise spend time with families. So personally, I wish everyone Merry Christmas and they can take it however best suits their own life.

Christ would have walked up to confront Trump and Musk and flip the table over on them.

Wishing the world a blessed and peaceful Christmas!


That's one of them. Or do you go around pretending there's only one winter holiday? It's wrong to include New Years and say Happy Holidays? Do you tell Jews "Merry Christmas" knowing full well they instead observe Hannukah?


This is fake outrage. Wishing someone a Merry Christmas is as innocuous as wishing someone Happy Thanksgiving or Happy Labor Day because it’s become a secular, consumerist holiday that’s more about presents, lit up trees, and Santa than the birth of Jesus.

It’s why it’s dumb to get offended about people saying Merry Christmas as it is for people to get offended for saying Happy Holidays. Christians, unlike other religions, have allowed all of their major holidays to get subverted by capitalism. Imagine if Muslims made Ramadan about a bunny or if Jews mad Hanukkah about a guy with a beard and reindeer. Only Christians are this weak.


But there are a number of folks in every community who do not celebrate Christmas - no tree, no gifts, no lights, no nothing - as they have their own EOY observances. It’s just kind to say “Happy Holidays.” Wish “Merry Christmas” to all you know who ACTUALLY celebrate. Then “Happy Holidays” for all others.


Not my FIL he goes out of his way to say Merry Christmas. It’s really aggressive. Like a secrete hand shake.


And there are those weirdos who give a dirty look if you tell them "Happy Holidays" - guess not so happy for you if you can't take having someone give you an innocuous friendly greeting. Last weekend I was in a Harley Davidson dealership buying a relative a gift and during the course of routine friendly small talk I told the cashier "Happy Holidays" as I was picking up my purchase to leave and he suddenly shot me a dirty look. I feel sorry for the people who have been so spun up and brainwashed in culture war BS that they take offense if you say anything other than "Merry Christmas."


The real question is why anyone would say "Happy Holidays" in the first place?

So you have a need to insult. Just say it. Don't hide behind that because it is a federal holiday, then "it has at least some meaning to every American." I mean, do you wish "Happy [Federal Holiday]" throughout the year?

I was raised in a fairly non-religious household, though both my parents, especially my mom, had been regular church attenders in their youth. They spent a lot of time in Sunday school so were quite acquainted with Christian teachings and we were certainly raised that way, even if their pedagogy may have been more secular in nature. So you would do unto others as you would want them to do unto you. That means act with kindness, not insist on saying "Merry Christmas" to all in order to bully them to reply in same.

Why would someone question why someone would say Happy holidays? That is weird.

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven.

It's wild how so many self-professed MAGA Christians don't actually seem to understand much of what's actually in the Bible.

What? I send a card to my Christian friends that says Merry Christmas. I don't send it to my non Christian friends, to them I send the card Happy Holiday. Use common sense op.

Not wild at all. The Antichrist / Deceiver is described in the Bible.

My cousin makes a similar sticker (and other Maga stickers), and this one was her top seller this year. She's made almost $10k off this sticker alone.

No, she is not a Republican. Yes, she loves taking advantage of their love for Trump and milking them of their money.


You are portraying your cousin as a mean, angry, rude person. I can’t tell if you are trying to humiliate her or praise her, but either way I hope you both find peace.


She's a hero of American free enterprise and free speech.

An entrepreneur feeding her family.

Another helpful tip.... Christ wouldn't vote for anyone. Heaven is a kingdom not a democracy. Its more likely He would put a child in charge of the entire nation than endorse anyone you've ever heard of in an election. And we would be better off for it. Merry Christmas y'all.


Christ taught to render unto Caesar what Caesar is due.
You think Caesar was better than modern politicians ? Voting is a civic duty.

I've never witnessed anyone get "mad" when wished Merry Xmas or Happy Holidays. My Jewish and Muslim friends wish me Merry Xmas even though I'm not a Christian. I say, "same to you" and no one is bothered by it. Grow up. This is all made up poop propaganda that has been placed in your head. Turn off the Fox News and MSNBC and come back to reality.

Let me guess, you don't have a good relationship with your FIL?


My thought too. He knows his daughter is not good enough for her. She probably hates her wife’s mother too

Muslims recognize Christ but do not celebrate Christmas(birth of Christ). Jews do not recognize Christ and do not acknowledge Christmas. Jews are the target of the war of Christmas because they do not recognize Christ.
