Do you say HAPPY HOLIDAYS or do you go with whatever greeting fits your religions holiday? Personally, I say MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I say Merry Christmas, mostly cause all the store employees can't..so I rub it in their faces.

I say Merry Christmas, regardless of one's religion. As a Christian, this is MY holiday, and I will observe it as such, just as much as I would have the respect to say Happy Channukah to a Jewish person. If other people get bent out of shape because I said Merry Christmas instead of something else that was allegedly non-religion-specified, they THEY'RE the one with the problem.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hannahka if I know they are Jewish, a contemplative Ramadan for my Muslim friends, Feliz Navidad to those who speak Spanish, a festive Solstice for my neo-pagan buddies, and a Happy Saturnalia to the old school pagans.

Yes, but that's beside the point.

Mr_Music I could'nt agree more. This is one time of the year I don't care if I offend others or not.
