4. Yep. Everything they start ranting at some shop clerk...
... for saying "happy holidays" rather than "Merry Christmas", they are totally ruining a nice sentiment and going AGAINST what Christmas is all about - love of family, peace on earth and goodwill towards men, etc.

If I were a cashier berated like that, I'd say: "Well, I'm Jewish (I'm not really) - I'm Jewish, so if you say 'Happy Hanukkah', I'll wish you a merry Christmas".


Hello, fundies! "Happy Holidays has been around for generations! It's not PC lingo. Remember the Christmas Carol, "Happy Holidays"? There is nothing wrong with being inclusive!

And PC zealots, if somebody gives you a sincere "Merry Christmas", there's no reason to be offended. Just say "Thanks." and move on if you don't celebrate it.
