Interesting question!
If one searches for a true definition for the term 'Politically Correct', one will see a great many concepts of this!
My personal definition is "What one who is running for office would say so as not to offend potential voters"!
You and I should not have to fall into this catagory!
If one were to wish me Merry Christmas or Happy Honika (forgive my spelling, it is late for me) and I did not believe in Christianity or was not Jewish, would I (you) be offended? I think not! We would simply say thanks, you too! And move on with our lives!
If something like this truely offends you, you need to get a real life! We have gone way too far overboard on this issue and we, as a people need to grow up!
Otherwise, this will become (one of) our downfall(s)!!!
Say what you mean! Mean what you say!

I understand. I still call myself an Indian sometimes. All the politically correct people give me weird stares because they think I'm bigoted against my own people!
