Merry Christmas vs Happy Holidays

Post by sprinks41 »

this has been bugging me for quite some time now. i was raised Catholic, so i celebrate Christmas. and it's always been Christmas to me, so i personally hate the "Happy Holidays" political correctness crap. i'm not against other holidays celebrated in December, but i'm from America and it's a country with Christianity heritage, so i dont believe in breaking the tradition of saying "Merry Christmas" just because others may be offended. what do the rest of you think?

i always said merry christmas
Children of the beast embrace,
To scorn and the human race,
Consume the light that hugs the earth,
And aid the womb in giving birth,
To a group that will appear,
And guide you through this final year,
The dark armies then will come,
When the sum is 41

i hate saying both, it sounds so cheesy.
but forcing people to say Happy Holidays in case they offend non-christian people is all part of Beigeism, which must be stopped.

I say, "Merry Christmas" and "Happy Holidays." I like to switch it up. If someone gets offended, I'd say suck it up and stop being a pussy.

I was brought up to believe that Christmas was about Kris Kringle so I don't see Jesus part of it,

I've always said Merry Christmas and I always will, I couldn't really give a shit about Political Correction, I'll say what I think is right. Plus I have never offened anyone saying Merry Christmas!!

I demand christmas gifts from all of you in SOME way.
And I know I said I needed space,

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.

So when I say I'm scared to be alone, you know I mean it,

I'm just not ready to leave my room.

I use both, although I think I use Happy Holidays more. It's not like it matters anyways.

i say merry christmas cause most people i know celebrate christmas.

the reason the church designated Jesus' "birthday" on December 25 is because around the winter solstice the days start getting longer. Jesus being "born" on that day signifies light coming from darkness and the savior coming to save us.

... is just what i learned in religion class a couple years ago. thought i'd enlighten you all.
