Why Are People Afraid to Say Merry Christmas?

It doesn't make any sense. The United States of America is a Christian nation where the majority of Americans celebrate Christmas even if they aren't religious and celebrating the baby Jesus part. There's a reason why this is one of my favorite Christmas songs as it's nothing but truth. 😁




I also love the movie based on the song.




If someone doesn’t know your religion and says Happy Hollidays

Why do you care?
 
Yet it's in the Declaration of Independence, Pledge Of Allegiance, our currency....


"Under GOD" was added to the Pledge of Allegiance in 1954 during the height of the Red Scare...

1892 (first version):

I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

1892 -1923:

I pledge allegiance to my Flag and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

1923 - 1924:

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

1924 - 1954:

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

1954 (current version):

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.


It was added because during the Cold War, many Americans wanted to distinguish the United States from the state atheism promoted by communist countries, a view that led to support for the words "under God" to be added to the Pledge of Allegiance.
 
Because even if I was Jewish then saying Merry Christmas to me wouldn't offend me.
How do people know what will offend you?

If a clerk says Happy Hollidays because they don’t want someone to complain to the boss…..why don’t you just let it go?
