ARGH. I hate when people say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas". Making things neutral doesn't make people of other religions all happy, it just makes people of all religions pissed. Atheists who do things for the holidays shouldn't care, and atheists who don't do anything for the holidays have no right to care. Tolerance will help us overcome racism, not neutrality. If someone said, "Happy Chanukah" to me, I wouldn't care, so why does everyone freak out when someone says "Merry Christmas"?

So many contradictions in the people of the US of A. People have freedom of speech, yet they want this political correctness or censorship. You cant have one without violating the other. This censorship also breaks the right of religious freedom. Saying merry christmas isnt pushing ones beliefs on an other, its more of a compliment from one person to another. Those who get pissed off about it need to quit being a duche, and get the sand out of their vagina. Say what ever feels natural.
"thats gay do u know what separation of church and state is? they CANT say
merry christmas u dumbass" The RNC is not a government institution, it's a political organization. They could say whatever they wanted to on their website (which is, coincidentally, .com instead of .gov, DOY!) This whole War on Christmas bullsh*t is just something Bill O'Reilly and John Gibson cooked up; conservatives in government have got bigger fish to fry... like.... flag burners..... and gays........
i'm an atheist, i celebrate christmas and i say 'merry christmas' - it has become secularized enough people shouldnt have to worry about religious connations. regardless, there are other holidays around this time - not just chanukah but F*CKING NEW YEARS. are people so stupid they cant see the sometimes sensible to incorporate all of them together, especially from corporations, so they dont have to make 8 different campaigns or say 8 different things? its common sense. be smart, dont be a retard.
I am a Christian and I agree with what dantes-torment just said. Atheists don't all hate Christmas, they just don't really care for the most part. Happy Holidays is just a way to wish everyone a good time during the holiday season at the same time, regardless of religion. I still say "Merry Christmas" to people I see, so what's the problem? To each his own.
I saw a pretty cool banner with the holiday message in 30 languages, but I noticed the Spanish phrase was "Feliz Fiestas." Go Babelfish that. "Happy Celebrations"? Baloney. I've never heard "Feliz Fiestas" from any espanol speaker I know (and there's been a lot), it's always been "Feliz Navidad" ("Happy Christmas"). Maybe there's not an atheist conspiracy but stuff like that is really fishy.
Anyway, if Christians really want to save their holiday, then they should campaign to make it not a national holiday that everyone gets off and instead just a normal day. Then it won't be commercialized and will actually be about Christ, and they will have to actively ask for the day off to celebrate it and thus show how devoted they are to their religion. Jewish people already do it with their holidays, don't see why Christians shouldn't do the same.
People like to get upset about "Happy Holidays" because Christians like to feel persecuted - it gives them conviction in their faith. Really, as TheShadow just said, it's about lumping together a collection of similar holidays of divergent origins and trying to acknowledge them all in the same word.
"nietzsche is approximately equal to hitler" This is incorrect. Nietzsche despised anti-Semites and mass movements as well as socialism, the state, and the gesticulating style of NAZI rhetoric. He was primarily an individualist; Hitler and other NAZI interpreters could not have been any further off the mark in their understanding of Nietzsche. This is primarily the fault of Nietzsche's sister, who seized control of her brother's work after his insanity and used it for her own aims.
"thats gay do u know what separation of church and state is? they CANT say
merry christmas u dumbass" yes they can. seperation of church and state is supposed to protect RELIGION from the STATE, and NOT the other way around. too many morons hear the words "seperation of church and state" and think that it means that anything having to do with christianity has to be put 10,000,000 miles away from government. also, since when did christmas become strictly christian? christmas is celibrated by everyone.
First I'll say that I'm Jewish, and whether some says to me "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays" I don't mind either way. People need to quit caring so much about it. I don't get offended when someone says "Merry Christmas," so why do you guys get offended when someone says "Happy Holidays?" Of all the possible jokes out there of how ludicrous political correctness can be, this one is pretty weak. Mostly I gave it a 2 because YTMND is supposed to funny, not someplace to make a statement.
"hats gay do u know what separation of church and state is? they CANT say
merry christmas u dumbass". you fail to comprehend the simplest concepts. this is the very nature of a ytmnd, poking fun at things. pure satire. the creator is not a religiously fanatic repuclican, nor is he an evil atheist sent by satan to rob you of your faith by convincing you your opinions are ridiculous. and now, to follow our wonderful ytmnd traditions, i part with this: fyad.
