Is there anyone out there that is offended by someone saying Merry Christmas?

Get over it. Christmas is a celebration of Jesus Christs' birth. That is the reason for the season and all of you cry baby, new age, so called experts, politically correct ediots are trying to change what has been established since way before you were born. If I want to display a nativity scene then I should be able to. If I want to say a prayer in public like at school then that is my God givin right. Who are any of you to make laws? United States are supposed to be for the people by the people. Well a lot of people are STILL Christians. So stop interfering with our rights.

The road to nowhere is paved with good intentions.

Hi realill1. If you're already saying "Merry Christmas" and demanding your rights to put up a Nativity Scene right now, it's no wonder people are telling you to cool it... it's not even Thanksgiving yet!

Here's how I feel. I'm not a Christian. I know a lot of non Christians are saying they get offended by people saying merry Christman and nativity scenes and all that. I don't really understand why. I believe in the right of any person to practice their beliefs, just so long as those beliefs are not forced on me. And the Christmas celebration is not something that forces anything. Yes, it has a Christian component. It also has its roots in paganism, as the yule. And no matter all that, it's a tradition which represents, at least to me, the closeness and love of family and friends. Wish me merry Christmas and I'll wish it right back to you. I think people who get offended by it are perhaps mentally ill, or jealous. Perhaps beause they have nothing to believe in.
