I was born Jewish and have never practiced any religion my entire life. You would think someone like me would prefer "happy holidays". Wrong! I have a strong preference for "Merry Christmas". Happy holidays has become one of the most politically correct cliches of all time. It makes me sick. I want to boycott any business that forbids it's employees from saying "Merry Christmas'.

This is silly.
You don't care enough to practice your own faith (or any other faith). But you can find enough indignation to be angry over a punk ass holiday greeting?

SMH...that's pathetic. Really though.
It's more than a holiday greeting, it's a statement. I am against all things politically correct and not allowing Merry Christmas to be said is PC to the max.

Bull. It's ONLY a greeting. Statement by butt. Something said that many times by that many people ain't no damn "statement." Please. You're trying to make it bigger than what it is. It's no more a statement than saying "hello" to someone. Come on...stop it.
I don't know how you guys walk around with politics in your head all day waiting to be offended by something as innocuous as a holiday greeting. Seriously, your blood pressure must be 200/150. SMH..

Getting PO'd because someone wished you well but didn't use your preferred verbiage is PC to the max.
Living in Florida I need mutiple greetings but "Happy Holidays" seems to be the "one fits all" greeting! My Jewish friends? I have to remember which days are "Happy Hanukkah" or my Muslim friends and "Ramadan"! Christmas is easy because every capitalist retailer in the US won't let you forget it!
Now I have to remember "kwanza" and "feliz Navidad" (oh and that horrible song as well).
Anyways! Happy Holidays to all of you no matter what you celebrate!
I don't really care so long as it is said prior to consuming large amounts of food and alcohol. After all that is what the season is about.
