+1000 for getting it right.

I'm an atheist. When a Christian says, "I'm praying for you," I say "Thank you" because they are doing something meaningful to them on my behalf. Many of them know that I don't believe as they do, but that doesn't change the fact that they wish me well and are praying for my well being.

When someone says, "Merry Christmas," I say it back. [b]If I'm pretty sure the person isn't Jewish[/b], I'll say "Merry Christmas" to people spontaneously.

When I send out cards, they're usually in the "Happy Holidays" vein because I have friends of many different faiths (or lack thereof).

Similarly, if you're a Christian, and someone says "Happy Holidays," you can say, "Thank you, same to you."

Not everything has to be a battle of belief. We can just be nice to each other and recognize the sentiment behind the words. [/quote]
