I say Merry Christmas but would not hesitate to say Happy Chanukuh if some Jewish person said it to me :shrug: (Kwanzaa is pushing it though

I prefer Merry Christmas.
However, I have decided that I will be less touchy about it, because the term is more inclusive, albeit more generic. Plus "Holidays" encompasses Halowe'en, Thanksgiving and New Years along with Christmas in a nice tidy package of glad tidings.
Happy Chanukah and Blessed Solstice to everyone!

Jolly kwanzaa to ya!I say Merry Christmas but would not hesitate to say Happy Chanukuh if some Jewish person said it to me :shrug: (Kwanzaa is pushing it though
yeah -- obviously most people would prefer being told merry xmas over happy holidays if they celebrate xmas, but they also realizing that saying happy holidays is being considerate to everyone and not just those who celebrate xmas. So this poll would likely end up with almost all xmas people voting for merry xmas :shrug:

Political correctness ruined it all for me. Before, I'd have said happy holidays just to be considerate because...why not? Everyone can enjoy their own holiday around this time, but now I'm so fed up that I pretty strictly stick to "Merry Christmas", sort of like a big "FU" to political correctness

There's a black guy in our office who says he does. But then again, there are numerous black folks at work who don't. I'll go around wishing everone a Happy Kwanzaa just to see what their reaction is. And, of course, I send my brother a Kwanzaa card just about every year just to be silly.
It seems Kwanzaa is losing it's popularity, as it should. It's kind of a silly, made up holiday anyway.

75% of my friends are black and none of them celebrate Kwanza. I do know a few muslims and a couple of jewish people.I have a very diverse set of friends and associates so I try to be considerate of others but in the end either saying is suitable to me.
A lady once told me her mother was given her bill at a restaraunt on the back it said, Merry XMAS. The mother left a note it said, here is your tip... A man named Christ was put on cross, not a man named X. She does make a point, my point is there will always be someone out there to find something wrong with everything. Can't please everyone.

I would bet if you went to his house he would have a Christmas tree up.
If he REALLY celebrated Kwanzaa, would he come to work Christmas day?

I thought you could celebrate both if you wanted to. I didn't think there was any kind of conflict. Although I think Kwanzaa is stupid, I don't see why someone can't celebrate Christmas and Kwanzaa.

Yeah, that was kinda the stupid response I was expecting. I'm surprised you were the only doofus who bothered to spit out a retarded response.
