"Happy Holidays" v. "Merry Christmas"

[ QUOTE ]
Anyone who is offended by someone saying "Merry Christmas" needs to calm down and think about the intent of the comment. In almost all circumstances, it's the equivalent of "hello", nothing more.

Yep. And the same for "Happy Holidays" or "Joyous Kwanzaa" or "Helluva Hannukah" or whatever. I agree, no reason to be offended, I don't think. The point I was trying to make, though, is that it seems a lot of people are being offended by "Happy Holidays" -- more so than usual. You'd probably agree that there's no reason to be -- and I agree with you. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Please point me toward any area where you've ever heard people say "Joyous Kwanzaa."

So I can remind myself never to go there.

You missed the "or whatever" part of my post.
