All I know about Hanukkah I learned from an episode of Friends.

You should read up on Kwanzaa. It was started by a murderer serving prison time and hasn't been around all that long, really. I can't remember what year it started, but probably no longer ago than the 1960s.

I also wrote a post about the "happy holidays" thing. I'm so tired of people being offended all the time.

"And I think that's ultimately what this time of year is all about." - such true words. Thanks for this post. :0)

So funny that this is your post topic today! We were out looking at Christmas lights when Tim saw a sign on someone's window that said "Happy Holidays" and he goes, "That's such BS...they're just non-believers" and I said "Did it occur to you that maybe Happy Holidays is really just a general way of wishing everyone a happy holiday, no matter what they believe or celebrate?". His mind was so closed off to it.

I wouldn't be offended at all if someone wished me something other than Merry Christmas.

This is an amazing well written post. I love your topic. I overheard some say the other day, "I refuse to say Happy Holidays, it's Merry Christmas." And this person worked in customer service...I think it's important to be tolerant of other people's cultures and religious beliefs even if you don't agree with them.

So true. Who knows what to say lest you offend anyone? I just say have a happy Christmas or a good Christmas.

Happy SITSsharefest.

You know, I agree, I would not be offended at all if someone wished me a "Happy....." whatever it is that I do not celebrate. And I actually had a discussion with someone the other day about not knowing what Kwanzaa is all about.

However, I did, for the first time ever in my life, make potato latkes the other day. Just because I knew it was the start of Hanukkah and it seemed like a good thing to do. They were DELICIOUS! Except I decided that rather than dipping them in applesauce and/or sour cream, I preferred ranch dressing. Which is probably sacrilegous.

Great post. I'm actually working with a Jewish resident right now, and it has really opened my eyes. I'm actually working on a post about it.

I'll be posting a similar subject and viewpoint next week. I was at music rehearsal last night and there was passionate debate about the topic. I land on the opposite side of where most of the arguers seemed to be. At least where the loudest arguers seemed to be... Anywho... I'll link back to you because this is a great post!

I totally agree with you!

Good post, K-Lo. I've always thought the best way to have tolerance and understanding towards all people/traditions, etc. is by learning more about them. Ignorance isn't always bliss. :)

First, thanks for the shout out and I couldn't agree with you more. I'm intrigued by this book. I'm going to have to look for it. As I said before, good wishes should be appreciated no matter the beliefs of the giver or receiver.

And that episode of COmmunity made me laugh so hard. I'm glad I kept with it. It's truly funny now.
