<p>“Actually, I think “Happy Holidays” because a way of wishing people the best even if you don’t know what they celebrate.”</p>
<p>EXACTLY, Momoftwins!!</p>
<p>Just because political correctness is carried too far in some cases doesn’t eliminate the need for people to be sensitive to others–especially to what they DON’T know about the other person. The phrase “Happy Holidays” is perfectly fine and has been used for quite a long time. I would rather speak on the side of caution rather than assume someone I don’t know very well thinks, prays, and celebrates exactly as I do.</p>
<p>“they have turned Christmas into “the Holidays.””</p>

Actually, the “Holidays” are exactly that. Christmas is ONE day. All the other days in December are more about “celebrating” and practicing the secular traditions of the season than worshipping and celebrating the birth of Christ. Only the individual has the ability to turn Christmas Day into anything other than what it is, not some “they”.</p>
