Bill O'Reilly is a tool.
I have always understood Happy Holidays to mean well-wishes to everyone for all of the many holidays between and including Thanksgiving and New Year's, to include the many celebrations besides Christmas that occur during that time. Like Yule. And Hanukkah. Sometimes Ramadan. Rohatsu. Kwanzaa. Etc. Etc.
It's culturally our holiday season because of the strong Christian influence on our society, but we've evolved so that we, as a culture, can celebrate all of these things without anyone feeling marginalized. Or at least we should.
It's a shame that some power-hungry and insecure so-called Christians have to see inclusion as exclusion and insist that everything always be about them.
