What is it about Christmas that so offends the happy holidays people? Why not Merry Christmas?Phyllis Chapman

Dear Ms Chapman,
I sincerely wish you a Merry Christmas. And if you go on a trip to visit relatives, then I wish you a miserable time for all of those holidays except Dec 25th.
I say this, because you have made it clear that you are offended when people wish you Happy Holidays, so I must assume that you want those days other than Dec 25th to be unhappy ones.
I'm laughing at the silliness of Ms. Chapman. I doubt that she expected that kind of response.
I am not at all offended by "Merry Christmas." If I use "Happy Holidays," that is to be more inclusive, as with including Jan 1 and the various other days that people take off from work during that week.
Yes, maybe political correctness has gone to far, what with the right wing crazies wanting to impose their insane version of political correctness on the rest of us.
