It's all about "happy holidays" vs. "Merry Christmas"

It is much more than this to me. It just representative of the assault on Christians by the ACLU and organizations bowing to the ACLU. I've had it.

The non Christians complain because a national holiday is also a Christian holiday. They want to celebrate but do not want to celebrate Christianity.

The Christians want to celebrate their holiday as they always have but complain of too much commericalization destroying the true meaning of their holiday.

The stores want to maximize their sales and will try to secularize the holiday so as not to offend Christians or non Christians.

So we have several holidays occurring at or near the same time: Christmas for the Christians, Hanukkah for the Jewish people, Winter holiday for everybody else.
