"Suppose a Muslim wished you a "Happy Ramadan"?"

I bet you think that as a Christian person, I would get all offended and stomp my feet and go off in a huff, thinking, "Why, How Dare HE! He knows I am a Christian! How offensive!"

If you think that, my friend, it says more about your own prejudices than it does about me.

For in fact, if a Musline were to wish me "Happy Ramadan", I would quite graciously say to him or her, "Why, thank you, my friend. Thanks for wishing me an entire month of happiness. May you also enjoy a most happy Ramadan as well."

To take offense when none was intended seems to me to be really quite petty and mean-spirited.

I asked you a simple question. It looks to me as if you are the one making assumptions.

Ramadan is a time of penance and fasting, like the Christian Lent. I've never wished anyone a "Happy Lent."
