I'm not going to pander to anyone.
I've never said Merry Christmas as a standard phrasing, because I'm not Christian and don't celebrate that holiday. Nor do I automatically assume that any stranger I talk to is Christian.
When I have specific friends who are Christian, I wish them Merry Christmas because I know they celebrate that holiday.
If you want to go around assuming everyone you talk to is Christian, that's your choice. Personally, I prefer to respect people and not make that assumption.

At Christmas time I always wish people a merry Christmas, even if they have a rag on their heads, or hide under bed sheets. It is after all the holiday we are celebrating and to not do so would be rude

Feel better now? Now that you've got all that out of your system?
I always say Merry Christmas. If any one comes back with a "Happy Holidays to you too". I smile and accept their way of celebrating. For me Christmas will never ever die out. It's Christmas and I am happy for it. My very favorite Holiday of the year. Has been all my life and always will be.
Jesus is the reason for the season!

I always have and I always will! It is a very sad day when gay pride parades that openly display drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected, and manger scenes at Christmas time should be illegal. Our founding fathers are turning flips in their graves at the thought of taking God out of our country! I love the USA. I love my God and I will never bow down and subject myself or my children to the non believers that hide behind the "PC" shield. Political correctness will destroy this beautiful country if it is not dealt with soon, just look at what it has done to the traditional family!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY EASTER.
I don't do the Happy Holidays other than to those friends who are Jewish, I don't do Happy Spring to those who don't celebrate Easter.
I do what is right for me, they accept it.

Here's my question - what is WRONG with "Happy Holidays"?
I have friends who follow a wide range of religions, so unless I know they're Christian, it comes naturally to me to wish them Happy Holidays.
