I'm not a religious person. At least, not if organized religion is what you define religion as.
I still think the “War on Christmas” is stupid. On BOTH sides of the issues.
It does not offend me that the word contains “christ”. Using the word “Christmas” too many times in a school bulletin doesn't bother me. (I find people who get too readily offended over pointless, stupid issues far more offensive than the name of a holiday could ever hope to be.) I see no need to refer to it as the “Holiday Season”.
I see no need to change the lyrics to Silent Night
And this is a bit much
Call it Christmas. Call it Winter Festival. Call it Saturnalia. I don't care; “a rose by any other name” and all that. To you, it may be a Christian holiday. To someone else it may be a pagan holiday co-opted by the Christians. To me, it's a secular holiday. GET OVER IT, PEOPLE.
But by the same token, stay the hell away from my Halloween.
