This is a post we ran before, it’s worth re-posting because the situation remains the same year after year.
How strange it is, how we greet each other during the month of December.
People now offer their greetings as some sort of secret code and not as a real, sincere greeting.
More time is spent trying to figure out if someone is a a Christian or non-believing heathen.
There are those who feel that we generalize the Christmas season with "Happy Holidays" because of the connection between Christ and Christmas.
One our Christian friends told us "Happy Holidays" appeals only to the heathen minority and insults the rightful majority.
We were also scolded that Paganism is socialism, and socialism is where Christianity isn't permitted.
So, saying "Happy Holidays" is the first step in destroying Christian beliefs from our society.
There was even an attack on Starbucks a few years ago because their coffee cups weren't Christmassy enough.
Regardless of whether you wish others a “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Holidays” this time of year, the true nature of the season is to be kind to one another and enjoy friends and family. So Happy Yule, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Winter Solstice, and Happy... anything else we may have missed!
