Amen.
Being a Christian, I am pleased to wish our Jewish friends Happy Hannukah, as I remember that Jesus was a Jew. So Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah!
Blessings!

P.S. Happy Hannukah to you!
Thanks! How refreshing.
Never in my life have I complained (or has it even occurred to me to complain) about a Menorah appearing in public, even on government property.
It’s just ridiculous all this bashing of Christian displays in public.
I join you in wishing others a Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah season.
All the best to you and your family.
Happy Hannukah and Merry Christmas to ya!
Happy Hannukah and a Merry Christmas to you.

Happy Hannukah and a Merry Christmas!
Or perhaps some cookies?
The Baby Jesus has been very good to certain Chri$tians, Jew$ and Mu$lims.
Well, Happy Hanukkah to you! Blessings and good health to you and your family throughout the season and into the (western) new year!
HAPPY Hannukah!!!
If I am a Christian,
and I say “Merry Christmas”,
it is simply me inviting you to enjoy the blessings of “my” belief.
If I am Jewish,
and I say “Happy Hanukkah”,
it is simply me inviting you to enjoy the blessings of “my” belief.
I have really never understood what the big deal is.
But, then, on the other hand, when it is my birthday,
I don’t wish for YOU to have a happy birthday...
So, I guess, I am sitting here arguing with myself about this...

And Happy Hanukkah.
As citizens who study the roots of our American system of self-government, whether as Christians or Jews, we must remember that the principles underlying our liberty are derived from Judeo-Christian ideas. They are centered and emanate from a conviction in the 1776 "American mind" (Jefferson) of a Creator who endows each individual with life, with inalienable rights, with liberty, as well as laws for their protection, under the sovereignty of a "Divine Providence" and "Supreme Judge" of the world.
These beliefs are encapsulated in our Declaration of Independence and are the foundation principles of our Constitution.
This is a season for celebrating our holy days, as well as our common heritage of liberty, as Jews and Christian--a heritage we proudly share with all.
