"Merry Christmas", not "Happy Holidays"

Hello, everyone. I'd just like to take the time to express my feelings over certain customs that seem to be happening around this time of year. As you know, Christmas is less than a month away, and I've been seeing a lot of people seemingly abandoning or trying to avoid saying the words, "Merry Christmas".  I understand that very few people are Christians, or even Catholics, but I see nothing wrong with saying "Merry Christmas". In order to avoid mentioning the name that sparked the word "Christmas", I keep hearing "Happy Holidays" everywhere I go, and between you and me, that is what disgusts me.  "Happy Holidays" just doesn't appeal to me as much as "Merry Christmas". So, I'd like to suggest something to anyone who reads this: Whenever you're walking down the block and you meet someone, try saying, "Merry Christmas" instead of, "Happy Holidays".  You'll keep Christmas alive
