The above statement excludes users of rsbandb and runewire
But that's retarded, it's almost 'festive segregation'; merry Christmas only wishes well those who celebrate Christmas, whereas 'happy holidays' wishes well those celebrating during the holidays.

Well - those who celebrate other holiday ceremonies can be less prickish and interpret "Merry Christmas" as "Merry (insert here)"
That's like saying "Here, have a glass of milk. I know you're lactose intolerant, but stop being so prickish and just pretend it's water or something."

That made me laugh ^, and for that I appreciate you. I don't know why it makes me so mad, but especially public figures getting their balls busted for saying "merry christmas". Same with educators.

Some piece of shit complained that their child's teacher was wishing "merry christmas" instead of "happy holidays" and the BOE confronted the teacher about it,
Yeah, that's political correctness gone too far. Oh well, that's the current society we live in the previous designed.

Wow.. seriously? Why would you even care =_=
Christmas is a holiday. Happy holidays includes Christmas. This whole "War on Christmas" is one sided. It is just Christians complaining...

(cont) because their holiday tradition isn't given special treatment.
I'm an atheist yet I still celebrate Christmas. Christmas for me is just exchanging gifts and spending time with people.

It's actually not just Christians complaining. I find the whole PC movement disgusting.

Why do you consider Happy Holidays to be PC?
It isn't politically incorrect to say Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays just includes all forms of celebration.
People should be able to say either without..

getting flamed.
The people saying Happy Holidays however seem to be getting flamed much more than people saying Merry Christmas.
Probably because the Christmas celebrators are the majority.
Have a satisfactory, non-denominational, capitalist, wintertime, gift-giving season!! WRONG!!! It's O.K. to say Merry CHRISTmas!!! I hate "politcal correctness" as well as those who want to oppress.
Liberal numbskulls need to stop trying to oppress the expression of Christian beliefs.

Excuse me? Do you really think everyone in the world celebrates Christmas? Jesus christ, this anti-"happy holidays" thing is a big inferiority complex crisis. Get off your high horse, you're not the

@Dano So basically wishing everyone happiness instead of wishing specifically YOU happiness is trying to oppress your beliefs, and you hate them for it?

You guys need to realize the real war on Christmas. It's this me-first, me-only, self centered "it's not ok to say holiday" mentality that is the exact opposite of christmas spirit that is ruining it
Knew that comment would raise some hackles. Hehehe... ^ fine display of "how dare you bigots... blah blah blah". Well, happy whatever you happen to celebrate on Christmas. <-- There's the greeting!!
Funny how all the minorities and special interests seek equality at the expense of the traditional majority, which has to give up their beliefs and traditions in order to be "politically correct".

No one is seeking equality, I am seeking the right to wish "Happy Holidays" if I wish without self centred people of anti-christmas spirit crying about it. No one cries when you wish Merry Christmas

but you'd think it happens the way you guys constantly complain. Seriously, it's the holiday season right now, stop spoiling it with "wah wah wah it's not okay to say happy holidays!! it's christmas@"
The OP's statement was meant to exclude this fine community. It was more directed to those in the public service. None of my comments are to apply to anyone here as well, only to the original target.

Those in public service deal with their population. Populations are diverse. They could list off every single thing to be happy or merry about during this season, or say "holiday". Much easier........
What I think is absurd is people talking about the notion of Puritan coming to America to establish "religious freedom" instead of the more correct "discriminating your way".
