There are some angry people on here.

Yeah,. People should just chill out.

We are talking about Jesus and Krishna. Divine personalities.

So just calm down and sing HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA with me.

I feel like this post is shallow and fails at being appropriately inclusive. There is literally zero mention of Kwanzaa and not a single mention of wishing a solemn and dignified Ramadan. Poster that posted this must be a racist Islamophobe.

Christmas is a day.

"Holidays" includes at least New Year's Day, and even Thanksgiving up to a point, even if you don't want to recognize Kwanzaa, etc.

And FTR, Xmas is NOT a "wrong" replacement for Christmas. It's just shorthand. The "X" represents the Greek letter chi which is part of Chi Rho which represents Christ.

C-mas, OTOH, is just stupid.
Got a card from some investment advisor firm with which we share three mutual clients. It said "Wishing You A bountiful Thanksgiving a Joyful Holiday Season And A Very Prosperous New Year."

They couldn't bring themselves to use the word Christmas at all.

Maybe they aren't Christian.

The bigger offender is not using commas and Capitalizing Every Word.
