For the politically challenged, a PC greeting.
Years ago, The Patriot Post coined “Christmahanakwamadanice” to encompass Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Ramadan and Solstice. That was in response, albeit ludicrously so, to the fashionable PC crowd’s demands for “inclusive” greetings. They insist the word “Christmas” is too ethnocentric for corporate use, and that it would violate the phony “Wall of Separation” should a government employee accidentally utter it.
Needless to say, in The Patriot Post’s humble shop, it’s still “Merry Christmas” and it’ll stay that way so long as we’re able to draw breath. However, for you politically challenged, we offer this alternative greeting.
Season’s Greetings from the legal department
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

I agree its Merry Christmas and nothing else, Ive been known to black out Ramadan and Kwanzaa on my calendar at work!
ReplyDeleteOh get over it all ready. Say Merry Christmas if you want, and if someone says Happy Chanukah to you be thankful for the kind gesture.
ReplyDeleteChristmas spirit isn't about being an upset crybaby bully.
Wish me well with whatever Holiday greeting you like, I'll cheerfully wish you back a Merry Christmas...
Cause we don't all have to be the same to get along. It's when we act like entitles d-whistles that things go amuck.
I celebrated the winter solstice by watching the set set on the shortest day of the year yesterday while sitting on my deck enjoying a glass of top shelf scotch. Ahhhh, better than all the other holidays put together!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad with Trump in office it is now OK to say Merry Christmas again,I even heard them say it on CBS news this morning. Admit it or not Trump is having a real effect on this country.
