Serious question for the athiests and I don't want to start a new thread but are any of you offended by the "Merry Christmas" saying this time of year? Or has Christmas become more of a cultural holiday to you?

The furthest thing from it, I say Merry Christmas more than IŽd say Happy Holidays, mind you that was in Canada in Iceland its just Merry Yule, so no biggie here.
Atheists, agnostics, non religious... they can all just celebrate any and all holidays without having to adhere to their religious reasons, excellent examples of that is obviously Christmas and Easter. Just great excuses to get together with friends and family and be together.
Even growing up in my family there wasn't any religious meaning towards Christmas, to us its always just been a holiday to share great food, presents and be thankful for what we have.
I think those atheists and non religious that have a problem with Christmas are really missing the point and are wasting their energy on something equally as stupid as Fox's war on Christmas crap we see every year.
