and saved Merry Christmas for friends I know. If I had Jewish friends I would wish them Happy Hannukkah which isn't on Christmas of course. I understand why they say Happy Holidays in the stores, but I feel like responding Merry Christmas.

My opinion is that I say what I say and I celebrate what I celebrate. When will I get the time to know everyones' celebration mode. We are in America, and Americans celebrate Santa Claus, etc.
If your from another country and dont like the Merry Christmas,,whatever. Go back to your country or whatever.
But dont come here and then expect that everyone needs to change in order for you to feel comfortable. You came here and you need to get acustom to us not the other way around.
If I decided to go to China to live (Example), by all means I would need to learn their language, etc. not enforce them to comfort me.

I really do not like saying "Happy Holidays". It is generic - and it is meant to be that way - as supposedly you cannot "assume" everyone celebrates Christmas. It is a dilemna for me because I am a Christ-follower and I do celebrate Christmas. I work at city hall where I live and I do wish visitors who come and go a Merry Christmas. I think if you would like to wish them a Merry Christmas at the stores, you should! It is Christmas whether you believe in Jesus or not.
I do have some Jewish friends and send them Hannakuh cards, and if I know someone is Jewish I will wish them a Happy Hannukah.

It's weird, this year I keep hearing Merry Christmas. It's so different from all the years past, when it was taboo. I think it's good. The majority of people in the US celebrate Christmas. If you celebrate Christmas, wish others Merry Christmas, if you celebrate Hannukkah, wish others a Happy Hannukkah. Just enjoy the season!!!!

I just wish people either Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays. I don't give a damn if they want to be insulted or not. If I'm gonna wish someone a Merry Christmas and they get an attitude, screw 'em.

I love saying Merry Christmas too. When ever I am out though I tend to say Happy Holiday. You just don't want to offend anyone. Everybody seems to get offended easily about everything these days its hard to figure. I just play it safe. Don't want to make trouble during the most "Wonderful time Of The Year" ha ha
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!!

Happy Holidays is like both New Year's and Christmas together I think.
