I got no problem saying Happy Holidays to people I dont know that well.
Why would I tell someone who might be Jewish “Merry Christmas”?
Now if I was a store owner, give the majority of religious here are Christian, I would go with the odds and have a Merry Christmas sign out front.
As long as the govt doesn’t abridge our or any institution’s Right to say it or display it, that’s what matters.
But if someone I dont know so well says happy holidays, i will say the same back.
I don’t need to PROVE anything. And I would think someone an idiot if they said “Happy Hanukkah” to me, not knowing my religious beliefs.
I do. I see no reason to have to worry about someone else’s belief system before talking to them.
If I know they are Jewish, I may wish them Happy Hanukkah, but I expect them to reciprocate with a Merry Christmas.
I’m done being politically correct.
Hanukkah ought to be OK to knowledgeable Christians. It appears in the New Testament as the Festival of Lights.
