Happy Holidays!

Focus on the Family has an entire website dedicated to what retailers are “Christmas-friendly” — that is, retailers who say “Merry Christmas” instead of “Happy Holidays.”
Does Focus on the Family not realize there are multiple religions and holidays in America? There’s Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, the Winter Solstice, and the New Year. What’s the problem with wishing people a general happy holiday season, instead of just one specific day that not everyone celebrates? There’s nothing sinister behind it, even if they want that to be true to fuel their persecution complex.
Seems to me that people who think this is a big deal are being self-centered and don’t want to think about anyone besides themselves.
So on that note, happy holidays everyone!

Why are they so hell-bent on having Jesus shill PS3s and designer handbags, anyway? Who is demanding that retailers use the name of Jesus Christ to fatten their bank accounts and promote an atmosphere of thoughtless greed which will drive consumers billions of dollars into debt?
