So why should a Jew care if a store clerk says “Merry Christmas?”

From my experience they could care less , as long as nobody is trying to kill or convert them.
I grew up going to public school in a Jewish neighborhood and my grade school used to hang up Merry Christmas signs every year.

Yesterday I stopped into a local Shop & Bag store and on the front door there were Happy Hanukkah and Happy Quanza signs and back by the Deli counter there was a sign that read Seasons Greetings but nothing that said Merry Christmas . Unfortunately I was running short on time and wasn't able to stop and talk to the manager but I plan on making some time latter on this week to ask him why not.

Again this comes from a Jew. Please do stop and talk with him and discuss this. As Jews we believe we are to honor the traditions of the nation which host's us. The nation which has become our home.

I believe if you will point out your thoughts the shop keeper would appreciate it and wish you a Merry Christmas
