With the hoopla in the news recently about some stores bringing back the specific references to Christmas, and others trying to remain generic, I'm curious how our posters feel about the issue.

I said "Other." :D I'm not Christian, and I celebrate Yule. But I don't get out of shape with any of the greetings. It's the intent of friendliness in greeting others that I think is important. ;) I smile and say thanks, "and the same to you." That way I make no assumptions. :P

As the old saying goes, "call me anything just don't call me late to dinner!" LOL!

I voted Happy Holidays, NOT because the others offend (although Yuletide Blessings doesn't trip lightly on my tongue) but because I find it less restrictive to say myself(I don't have to think twice to remember if the person I am greeting is Jewish or Muslim or Seventh Day Adventist or whatever...
