Ho ho ho happy holidays to be politically correct Well, being jewish as I am, our holiday ended 2 days ago, and Kwanzaa starts tomorrow, so I think Matt was simply stating that Christmas was today, and was just referring to how no other holiday is on this day You could use the term happy holidays on any day on december, but this day would be an exception, as from tomorrow to new years, you could tell everyone "Happy Kwanzaa" or when its Hanukah, you could say "Happy Hanukah," but those holidays aren't as widely practiced as Christmas, so it would just sound kind of reverse-biggot sounding I don't usually get offended if someone says merry christmas to me, and usually, I say merry christmas back. I think if you reply with happy holidays, depending on your tone it sounds like you're the bigger dick than the guy who said merry christmas in the first place What i'm trying to get at is that you should initially say happy holidays, but if someone says merry christmas, dont be a dick about it and just say merry christmas back

In all honesty though Christmas is more of a cultural holiday as much as it is a religious holiday. Jesus probably wasn't even born on christmas.

Its a fact that jesus was born at some point in the summer,but due to pagan rituals, as the Christian s took most of their holidays from the pagans, they decided to cwlebraste Christmas in December so that the populace would find it easier to xconvert.
Also, as it was Christmas, I said merry Christmas, as in the day. When other holidays start you may start a thread stating them.
Also, am British. Don't care for others holidays. Just drink beer and whiskey and eat a sh*t ton of food... Then have dinner. And drink more bpooze. !uvch fun. British traditions best traditions.
