Maybe they could just say "Merry Christmas" on December 25th, on the other holidays say "Happy Merry Whatever". In between holidays the stores could say "Happy Holidays". Or does might make right?. The bible does says the meek shall inherit the earth.

Just stick with Happy Holidays.

While the social engineers have done a good job of ridding the Christmas holiday of any of it's religious meaning, it is still recognized as a stat holiday in most countries and I don't hear any of the non-Christians or atheists bitching about the getting the day off. I figure saying "Merry Christmas" isn't such a bad thing for anyone to say since many people benefit from this holiday. While I don't get upset at 'happy holidays' I'm not particularly impressed with terms like 'holiday' party or 'holiday' tree, those statements are just silly.

How about most stores are closed on December 25. Of course I'm sure you would love to work instead of getting the day off with pay. Isn't that right? It's a federal Holiday.
Merry Christmas.

You know, I think you're on to something. Heck, we might even let them say "Merry Christmas" on December 24, to give them a whole day to celebrate in advance. But the entire month? That's insane.
On second thought, I think I'll just say "Happy Merry Whatever" the entire month. I don't have any crap to sell to Christians, so what difference does it make to me?

SHUT UP! I'm tired of all the Christmas bashing. If you dont like Christmas go back to where your descendants originated and celebrate what you like there.

Meek=Humble..which in turn equals humble towards God. We really have to rightly divide the word of God.

I'd love it if they stuck with "Have a nice day" at the counter, honestly, and sold all kinds of merchandise.
