Well tell that to religions that don't believe in it, lol!

I agree, it should be Merry Christmas, but when your in retail, you have to obey by the rules, which my wife does. I know it sucks, but oh well.

I honestly don't get into it, rather you say happy holidays or Merry Christmas.

Most people don't even say shit to be honest. I do loss prevention and deal with a lot of people and I say Happy holidays as well, as I am instructed and people usually are just pissed off because they hate their lives, lol!

'holidays' recognizes christmas, new years, hanaka (sp?), kwanzaa, etc whatever the hell else kinda holidays go on...what's wrong with it again? The fact that it caters to everyone instead of just the majority?

I think the problem with "happy holidays" isnt that it covers all religions, but has the appearance to undermine,well,Christmas

how does it undermine it? If anything, specifically saying christmas undermines every other holiday...as if somehow christmas is more important because YOU celebrate it.
