Enough with political correctness in the U.S. and also Canada, while rest of the western world (even in the UK and Australia) where 'Christmas' is used exclusively looking at various mall, stores and McDonald's sites whereas in North America 'holiday' is used much more when referring to Christmas.

Why would somebody be offended by Christmas when 80% of Americans are Christians and 96% celebrated the holiday?! Gash!
If being the most popular holiday is what matters, will you wish everyone a Happy Ramadan (close #2) when it comes around?

I am a liberal atheist and I have no problem saying "merry Christmas" to people. I said it at least 20 times today.

Get over yourself, not everyone is attacking you.

Anyway, what are "McDonald's sites?"

This^. The whole thing is pretty ridiculous.

I'm not religious in any sense of the word, but I'm pretty sure Jesus celebrated Hanukkah, not Christmas, so I'm pretty sure he wouldn't care either way.
