Merry Christmas, everyone! We hope yours is filled with joy.
There were rumblings last year about the "war on Christmas," and how people were avoiding saying "Merry Christmas" in favor of the more inclusive and generic "Happy Holidays." We don't think "Merry Christmas" is an insult or slight to anyone. It just means this is a very special time of year for me, and I hope that you can join me in the good spirits.
Here's Anna Lulis trying to stir things up:
Don’t say Happy Holidays.

Say Merry Christmas.
Thankfully, we have Matthew Dowd, David French, and alleged pastor John Pavlovitz on X to tell all of us Christians how we're doing Christianity wrong.
Say "Happy Holidays."

Yeah, we're not going to read Pavlovitz's Substack, but apparently, he's written a piece in which he argues that Christians who say "Merry Christmas" instead of "Happy Holidays" are "weaponizing" Christmas.

Can Christians say "Merry Christmas" to each other? Is that OK?
You sir, have just discovered the perfect way to get a ton of Merry Christmas wishes. Merry Christmas!

Or, how about you can say whatever holiday greeting you want and you don't get your panties in a bunch when people use their preferred greeting. Merry Christmas 🎄

I didn't know that Merry Christmas was offensive. Let me change it a bit. Instead of saying "Merry Christmas" from now on, I'm gonna say "Happy birthday of the One, True God Jesus Christ"

Merry Christmas, loser!

When a “pastor” calls Christians “insufferable” for honoring Christmas, the issue isn’t language. It’s that the shepherd has started despising the sheep.

Merry Christmas, John. We'll pray for your conversion.
