You are right. I would not intentionally say Merry Christmas to someone I knew would be offended or who was a Jew, or a Muslim, or a Sikh or a Buddhist, etc. My intent is not to offend & it's never done in an in your face manner. And in that same vein, I would expect others to embrace multiculturalism, tolerance & inclusion by not squelching my freedom of speech & my right to religious expression. I wouldn't be offended if someone replied, "bugger off" to my Christmas greeting. After all, they would be freely expressing themselves. I'm not forcing my religion on anyone by saying Merry Christmas. I'm simply expressing my happiness of the season in which christians celebrate the birth of Christ. If you are going to squelch that, you have to stop any public expressions, no?
