Merry ? What ever?

I wonder if the saying Merry Christmas will be outlawed in a few years time so as not to upset the minorities. It is already outlawed in some schools? Should never had been an issue. Why outlaw something so intrinsic. To make everyone inclusive you adopt their customs into your own. You do not ban traditional customs and come up with a trite saying in the hopes of appeasing the masses. Gobbledegook

There's no sign of a ban on Xmas here. Businesses wouldn't allow it 😒

@TheConstantGardener I'm not saying that there are plans to ban Christmas. But before long people will be able to sue anyone who uses the term Merry Christmas. You wait and see🙂

@Gusman I don't see or hear anything of that here. There's not even a hint of it. Even in multicultural areas they celebrate it along with the other religions represented.

@TheConstantGardener The term "Christmas" or its religious aspects is being increasingly censored, avoided, or discouraged by a number of advertisers, retailers, governments (prominently schools), and other public and secular organizations.
This is the reality unfortunately

@Gusman As I say, I don't see any evidence for that here. I take your word for it that you may be experiencing it in your location. Maybe someone should speak with your political representatives.

@TheConstantGardener There were attempts in the UK to dampen down Chistmassy things about 10 to 15 years ago but they never really gained traction. The Catholic Church really stood up.
