@Butrflynet,
I believe that when the baby Jesus got to be a child, he celebrated Chanukah. He never said Merry Christmas. In my secular Jewish opinion, the big deal about saying Merry Christmas, like we are all in a 1940's Christmas movie, is just part of the way Gentiles like to advertise their religious affiliation. It might just go with the territory of being in the majority?
Like I cannot believe anyone wants to take the holiday away from those that believe in a Merry Christmas. However, market forces do seem to point to a "Happy Holiday" as a way to win the dollars of a more diverse gift buying public, I believe.
So, here we have perhaps, some zealous Christians wanting to limit the holiday shopping profit from well meaning retailers. Now is that very Christian?
