There isn't a war on Christmas, just a BS 'war' on seasonal greetings. Merry Christmas vs Happy Holidays.
The Merry Christmas Crowd believes that somehow by not saying Merry Christmas, it's some kind of slander against the holiday itself, or their
religious views.
The Happy Holiday's crowd believes that saying Happy Holidays is more political correct, because many religious holidays fall during the month of
December, so it's not just about one religious holiday, rather them all. All inclusive basically.
