I remember as a kid, we would occasionally get Christmas cards that had the phrase “Happy Holidays” or “Seasons Greetings” on the front. We would receive these cards from family members that I knew were good Christian women. I never thought of these phrases as potentially offensive to Christians. But it seems like we have gotten to a point in our world where people want to be offended by any type of greeting. If you say either of these phrases above, you are seen as trying to be politically correct to try and not offend non-Christians. If you insist on saying “Merry Christmas”, you are trying to be politically correct and not offend Christians. It seems that the argument is more about politics than it is about religion. And there shouldn’t be an argument at all.
