This question popped up in my class yesterday, but it's not quite important I guess:

Shouldn't people say "Happy Holidays" more instead of just "merry Christmas?" It would be more appealing for those who celebrate other Holidays and make them feel as equally as important as other Holidays. I just wanted to know if people should say it more than just "Merry Christmas" throughout the nation when talking to a stranger or a group of people whos religion is unclassified.

True. “Happy holidays” is a more better general option.

I thought so. Everyone keeps on looking at me as if I'm an alien when I say it at school.
