The people who IMAGINE there is a war on Christmas have been occupied on other imaginary wars of late.

Fixed it for you.


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?


I live in Georgia. Several of my Jewish friends wish me a Merry Christmas, and I say Happy Hannukah to them. When I don't know a person's faith, I say Happy Holidays!


This is the way.

just moved to the burbs from the city and could not find "happy holiday" cards only "Merry Christmas"

It seems the war is on the generic use of holidays out here, not on Christmas.

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.


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.


There is no "war of Christmas". No normal people get upset if you say Merry Xmas or Happy Hanukkah or Happy Eid. Get over yourself fool.

Why can't you say it in stores? I say it all the time and I'm not even Christian. Stop being such a coward. If you celebrate Xmas, say Merry Xmas. If you don't celebrate Xmas, feel free to say it anyway. Sticks and stones.

Normal people also don't freak out if their red and green holiday-themed Starbucks cup isn't "Christmassy" enough for them but sadly there are a fair number of people out there who aren't normal.

You can say it. But if you say it as a political aggression and not as an evident kindness, then you reap what you sow.

Saying "Merry Christmas" is a radical act of subversion in our occupied country.

Disagree and stop using Xmas. It is derogatory to Christian’s and blasphemous. Word matter.

Word do matter.

The "X" in "Xmas" is an abbreviation for the Greek letter chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Christós:

Origin
The abbreviation originated in the early fourth century when Roman Emperor Constantine the Great popularized it as shorthand for Christ.

First use
The first recorded use of "Xmas" was in 1021, when an Anglo-Saxon scribe wrote "XPmas".

Meaning
The "X" in "Xmas" symbolizes Jesus Christ, the Messiah, and the anointed one of God.

History
The early church used many symbols, including the fish and the cross, but "Xmas" is used less frequently by believers today.

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?


Because it is inclusive and everybody needs to be more inclusive; not less inclusive.

Are you against inclusion or something?

Its been pretty clearly stated that no one is offended by Merry Christmas, but is by Happy Holidays. So Merry Christmas is therefore more inclusive.
