As usual I agree with LH. If I am not confident about someone else's holiday I would hesitate to give a holiday greeting. "Happy Good Friday" sounds ghastly to me - just as "Happy Yom Kippur" does or "Happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception" (which does not, as many assume, have anything to do with the Virgin Birth.)

I would rather wish someone a bland "good holiday" than offend someone with an inappropriate expression. My definition of polite!
