    Heres my take on the whole thing.
    IF YOU DON'T care for Merry Christmas and the whole deal-Work on the 25th and do not take any holiday pay or time off for the time being.

    I am really tired of all the AHs that really do not care for the spirit of the season, but seem to want to have the time off to spend with their families.

    JC, don't wreck it for me and everyone else.

    Buck up and be grown up for kee-rist's sake.

    I can't help it if you are a sorry AH.


    Happy Kwanzaa, Eid, Christmas and all the rest.
    MORONS!

    Someone will always find something offending. The stores are just afraid of losing customers.

    I think it's absurd.

    I'm offended if someone calls me a nasty name and tells me they hope I get run over by a bus.

    I am never offended by anyone wishing me joy and happiness ... in any language or religion.

    THANK YOU! That hits the nail right on the head! Whatever you call it, when someone wishes you a Merry Christmas, this is exactly what they are saying, just using different words. They are just wishing you joy and happiness on Dec. 25th.

    The world has just gotten TO silly and there are bigger issues that should be addressed rather that what to say to someone in December...

    My buddie Mike is Jewish. They do not celebrate Christmas and he made that clear to me... in turn, I made it clear to him that I DO and his fur kids WILL get gifts from my fur kids. He does NOT have to accept them as Christmas gifts but just as "gifts from the heart".. He did and my fur babies also got "gifts from the heart" from his. I always felt blessed whenever he wished me whatever Jewish holiday they celebrated.

    Special Needs Pets just leave bigger imprints ♥ on your heart!

    Quoting for lack of a way to say it better!!! When did wishing people happiness become a bad thing? Sometimes the world makes my brain hurt.

    Too right! Do we live in a world that has forgotten the meaning of "respect"?

    What next.. Remember a year or so ago when they told all the Santas that they could not say HoHoHo due to it offended the prostitutes.. Its all a bunch of crap to me.. If you dont like hearing Merry Christmas Merry Christmas then close your freaking ears & eyes as well.. People seem to forget really the meaning of Christmas & who really brought us into this World.. Now I will get off of my soap box..

    I won't ever stop saying MERRY CHRISTMAS - it's our tradition and I feel sorry for anyone whose lives are so boring that they have to complain about this. Christian or not, Christmas is just that, no matter how somebody wants to twist it around.

    I love this - and I totally agree. I just don't get it. If you don't want to wish someone a Merry Christmas, that's fine, but to take offense? Come on now! I also agree with those of you who said that the whole PC thing has gotten out of control - now we have to be afraid to say anything, or we'll offend someone!
