Happy holiday / christmas / winter soltace?!

[lukevanoort]

Well, in many cultures and religions this particular time of year has been very important. The winter solstice is and has been important to many cultures and many religions have something that is related to it. So, I think happy holidays is appropriate, given the diversity, although you never hear hapy solstice. Although I've grown used to it living in the Bible Belt, people really need to stop having Christmas related stuff at schools, saying Merry Christmas is one thing but whole classes of it are just wrong. It doesn't help that I end up offending everybody around this time with history, including the etymology of the word Christ.
