And retailers who had excised the word “Christmas” from their promotions have changed their tune because of consumer pressure.

You see what a little "pressure" can do!

Let's take the our culture back from these jokers!

I wonder if Pagans will ever take it back from Christians.

Why is it folks spend the Advent season wishing each other Merry Christmas, but spend the Christmas Season wishing each other Happy New Year?

Have a Blessed Advent.

even hear some Christmas carols in schools,”

You just have to get out of the big cities. All three of my children's public school Christmas concerts have always featured religious songs, some of them even in latin.

I humbly propose that all Christian freepers start writing it as CHRISTmas, and even pronouncing it with the long I, as in Christ. It takes a little practice but soon it will become habit.

My whole family does it now. I always hoped it would spread into a nationwide phenomenon.
