As Christmas approaches we are always constantly reminded to be politically correct. For example, say “Happy Holidays” rather than “Merry Christmas” because not everyone celebrates Christmas. I can remember having a conversation with a friend who told me that her young son is in a music class at school. Recently, they were learning to sing the song “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”, except the teacher told the class that it was going to be “We Wish You a Merry X-Mas”. Of course her child being a Christian questioned the teacher as to why that is the case. His teacher said the normal statement, “not everyone celebrates Christmas and we don’t want to not offend anyone.”
Well it offends her son and many others not to be able to say Merry Christmas. Not to mention the song is ‘We Wish You a Merry Christmas”, not X-Mas.
For me Jesus Christ is the reason for the season. So I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.
