Merry Christmas vs Happy Holidays

What do we say "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays"?  Both greetings are fine using your judgement on the audience or person you are extending the greeting too.

The issue I have is if you want to say "Merry Christmas" close to 12/24 and 12/25 and someone get's offended. I'm sorry that is the Holiday we are celebrating Christmas. The birth of Jesus Christ. What did you think we were celebrating Santa Claus. 

Saying "Merry Christmas" to someone is not disrespectful. It's disrespectful to get offended when someone says "Merry Christmas" to you.

A general rule is to be gracious when someone extends you any type of greeting it means no disrespect.

Stop picking on the usage of Christmas because that is the Holiday we celebrate on December 25th.

Leave schools alone and let children celebrate Christmas.
