GTK..... are we now opening your forum up to religious postings?

Better not wish anyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year on the forum come December. Don't mention Halloween, Easter, Mardi Gras, or Mother's Day either as they are all tied into the Christian calendar. I think we can take political correctness a little too far. The original posting is just a well wishing for a certain segment of society, some of whom may be on this forum.

This is why I say "happy holidays" to folks I don't know...made the mistake of saying "merry Christmas" to a woman a few years ago and it turned out she was jewish{friend told me after the fact...nice timing}...Ohhhhh, the look I got from her! I meant well, but not from the looks she gave me....I take the safer route now...funny thing too, becuase around here at our church{catholic} they get a tad ruffeled if you say "happy holidays"...you'd get corrected with "I prefer merry christmas, myself".....darned if ya do and darned if ya don't.... maybe I should just pull a burl Ives and say "have a holly jolly...", nope, that won't work either....Maybe scrouge was on to something!
