You know what's really funny about all the pc goons out there trying to get the word "Christmas" out of the season is this....they are substituting the word "holiday(s)" for "Christmas". You know, "Happy holidays", "Holiday Season", etc.
Holiday is derived from the Old English language words "holy day". Like many of todays words, the two were combined over the years to make one word.
So let them clowns continue, they don't have a freakin' clue about anything.
Cheers and ..............
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Chanukah, Bon Noel, Feliz Navidad, etc.!!
Many Christians may not believe that December 25th is Christ's birthday, but they have acceped Christ as their Savior. Many today wish to be accepted without accepting Christ and will resort to many things in order not to feel left out. Good Luck!!
