Have friends that are Jewish. Didn't understand their holidays so I asked them to teach me about them. I have respect for the beliefs of others and expect the same in return. They don't say Happy Holiday to me. They say Merry Christmas because is what I believe in.
It is not Happy Holidays. It isn't X-mas either. It's CHRISTMAS. A time to worship. A time for family. A time for giving.

Quite right! I say Happy Hanukkah to my Jewish friends. Of course Hanukkah celebrates the Maccabees victory over the Greeks who were trying to paganize their culture. Sound familiar?
