The War on Christmas!!??

Really, I thought we were past that. But no, recently I’ve seen a number of people on social media protesting how they can now say “Merry Christmas” and all the lefties say “Happy Holidays.”

Really? Really? Do they honestly believe that?

Obama had Christmas Trees every year, and he called them that. There has never been any federal law about saying “Merry Christmas.” Every single Christian (and many non-Christians) I know, R or D, have said “Merry Christmas” forever.

Yet some people are convinced that there’s a “War on Christmas.” I’m sorry to say this, but if you believe that, you’re very misguided.

Every year about this time, people on the right trot this out. Because they know that all the people on social media will complain about it, and get them mad at “the Godless Left” all over again. That’s all this is about. It’s about division and hatred. Yet those who believe in this “War” are often the first to complain about how we’re so divided.

You know who does say “Happy Holidays?” Mostly, it’s businesses. (You know, those far-left CEO’s !!!) And they say it because they are trying to include as many people as possible. They want to welcome Christians, but also Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, atheists, etc. Because they want to make as much money as possible.

But actually the real problem is that conservatives have a completely erroneous vision of what progressives are. They honestly believe that liberals are God-hating, baby-killing, freedom-hating, tax-loving, police-hating, socialists. Well, that's not us. But that’s a discussion for another day.

So go ahead and say “Merry Christmas.” Or “Happy Holidays.” Or whatever you want. And don’t get so offended when someone says something different.
