The politically correct term is "Holidays" as in Happy Holidays, which the left, or that large proportion of the left, that resents Christianity and America's heritage of Christian majority will use exclusively.

It depends on the situation.

If you know that the person you are greeting is not Christian and you say, "Merry Christmas"... you are just being an @$$.  Just the same as a Muslim greeting you with an " Allah Akbar!".

But if you don't know the person's religion... it's perfectly fine. (or if they are Christian as well)

So?? It doesn't mean he is qualified to be President..

Nope.

No more than I am, cause I do the same thing, and I sure ain't qualified.  :patriot:
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

I don't know a single person who would do such a stupid thing......

Unfortunately, I've had the misfortune of having two supervisors that, when just shooting the bull, admitted that they go out of their way to do that... to remind their non-Christian workers how they aren't following the Gospel.

For many the fearless bucking of political correctness is a qualification that has been sorely missing.  At the very least it's damn refreshing.

I agree. This one thing wouldn't qualify anyone to be president.

Political culture has tried to ruin simple traditional customs and rituals, with political correctness their weapon of choice.

Happy festivus everyone!

And to all, a good night...

I guess the Christians I know actually act like it.
