You know, I remember when I was a kid and people said "Happy holidays" and "Season's greetings" all the time.It wasn't even a statement back then … it was just normal.Frankly, I think that a lot of Xians are celebrating a holiday I like to call Chipmas these days.They're calling it Christmas, but what they're really honoring is the chip on their shoulder. When you tell off a cashier for wishing you "Happy holidays," then you're really not honoring God in any way.Sigh …
