I'll go a step further.
I think we shouldn't use the phrase "Merry Christmas". The phrase means, "Happy Christ's Mass". I'm not Catholic so the phrase doesn't apply. I'm a Bible believing Christian. Therefore I contend that I don't celebrate "mass", let alone, "Christ's Mass" (Christmas). I've set a day aside to remember and celebrate the birth of Christ. That day, being set aside, is seperate i.e. holy. Therefore it is a "Holy Day" or..."Holiday". So biblically speaking it makes more Christian sense to say, "Happy Holidays".
So what is it that many of us celebrate; "Christmas" (Christ's Mass) or a "Holy Day" (Holiday)?
