Why is "Merry Christmas" offensive?

Asked by chyna (51328points) December 3rd, 2011

It’s a national holiday named Christmas. It’s just like any other holiday, New Years Day, 4th of July, Easter, etc. Yes, it has religious connotation’s with it, but so does “happy Hanukkah” and I don’t think I’ve heard that people don’t want that said. Why not celebrate it or not, but why have an uproar over saying the name? And please don’t make this into a “there is no God” thread. That isn’t the question.
