Someone has to do this.

John T, thanks for posting, you beat me to it, LOL. A very Merry Christmas to you and yours and all the other members and visitors to EO

.
Yes, a very Merry Christmas John (& John) and a Happy New Year to you and all who haunt these halls.

I'm offended. A merry Xmas to all anyway.

Can't imagine why any genuinely offered & unconditional Christmas greeting might offend anyone.

Thank you & Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all, here & everywhere, of all faiths & beliefs, of all backgrounds , & regardless of whether you celebrate Christmas yourself I send you love & wish you well.

Thanks John T and others. I like your style, and yes a Merry Christmas to you all.
People have a right to be offended if that is how they choose to do life. They can, but they certainly should be fronting up for work and not considering it a holiday (Holy Day). Sort of can’t have it both ways.

Merry Xmas to all .

Merry Xmas to you all. Stay happy, wealthy, and healthy in, the upcoming new year.

As an avowed atheist and someone who has taken part in numerous debates on the problems religion brings... I've never met anyone (reasonable) who has a problem with the idea of saying "Merry Christmas", Christian or not.

I understand the notion of looking to make the season inclusive for all, but, in our society (yes, I know, the concept was adapted by the Christians from the "pagan" celebrations) Christmas is derived from a Christian basis. No-one seriously cares, surely?

I've celebrated Diwali in India, but I'm not Hindu (mind you, the inhaling of coloured powders get's up my nose!)..

Hope everyone had a great day. Cheers,

Mark

Happy Birthday, Jesus.
