I don't understand why people get offended by either.

People, get over it. Its Christmas, that's what it is. This "happy holidays" crap belongs in the same bin as civil "naming ceremonies" instead of Christenings. Its a stupid invention for non-believers that are too stubborn to to recognise it for what it is, & yet insecure enough to feel the need for their own special greeting.
And what's with being offended? It's like an athiest sneezing & then cracking it when someone says "God bless you". Maybe the recipient should be the one to adapt.

it's easy for someone of a christian background to ask why people get offended.
Think of it this way. Every year without fail every public place has Christmas decorations. Christmas music plays on the radio non-stop and everywhere you turn it's all Christmas. People ask you what you're doing for Christmas and you feel really awkward.
So imagine being a kid growing up where every winter you feel awkward and left out for the entire Christmas season.
Thats why it upsets people. Just say holidays.

Well fine instead of trying to be nice and saying Merry Christmas how about the employees at walmart just spit in your face and step on your shoes? Freaking brats getting offended when people are trying to be nice to them.

Since this is American and there's freedom of speech; I'll say whatever I d_mn well want to say. My choice is Happy Yuletide,.

The correct answer is "Happy Saturnalia". You can trace back Christmas's origins to that lovely pagan holiday.

People today are too worried about "offending" others. I think that everyone should just get over it. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will "never" hurt me. So since about 95% and above of Americans celebrate Christmas (religiously or not), we should say Merry Christmas. So, to everyone no matter what you celebrate MERRY CHRISTMAS!
