For me it's Merry Christmas. No fear of reprisals. No shame in my beliefs. No shame in my Lord Jesus Christ !!!
I will not be part of the 'remove God from Christmas' campaign.
How about you ?? Will you wish others a Joyful Merry Christmas or Will you say a lackluster happy holidays ????

Well, seeing as it is still November and just one day after Thanksgiving and not even Advent yet I will probably for go the 'Merry Christmas' for now. But when the time does come it will be 'Merry Christmas'.

Happy Holidays.
Christmas *IS* a holiday, and so is included in that greeting.
I can't tell what a person's faith is by looking at them. I don't wish to exclude *anyone*. The snarky ones who correct me with a disdainful "You mean 'Merry CHRISTMAS'!" are not being very accepting nor Christlike in my view. But if they wish me a Merry Christmas first, then I respond in kind.
There are so many miracles to celebrate this time of year, and I want to be respectful to *all* of the celebrants.

Usually Merry Christmas. To our Jewish friends we say Happy Holidays.

It depends on to whom I am speaking. Mainly because Christmas isn't the only celebration at this time. So to my Christian friends I say Merry Christmas, to everyone else I say Happy Holidays, as I do not wish to offend.

I will say happy holidays because people other than christians celebrate christmas. I think it would be rude of me not to include them in the holiday. Aside from that, I am an agnostic, not a christian, so I have absolutely no problem with the term happy holidays.
