If some people get offended because the word "Christ" is in Christmas...then they should be offended at alot of other things too. I don't hear people getting offended at the Jews or Buddhists and making them change there words or whatever...
What is Christmas? It is a celebration of Christ's birth...look it up. So people should call it what it is and leave it...or make the Jews replace Happy Hanukkah with Happy Holidays as well. No offense to the Jews, I am just using it as an example.

Ok...I am done ranting now... ;)
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!]]>Dec 17th 2008 4:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/
Here's how I see it. When people say Happy Holidays to me, I take it in the plural. I assume they mean Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, since both are holidays are just 8 days away. Regardless of which December-ish holiday you choose to celebrate, usually you take the 1st of January as something to celebrate too.

The PC people get their way, and I make sense of it and have no un-PC ax to grind. ]]>Dec 17th 2008 4:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/you know, a evergreen that is decorated with lights, maybe a star on the top. ]]>Dec 17th 2008 6:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/

I suppose you are one of those that thinks atheism is like some sort of anti-religion. Well, I can tell you that the great majority of us don't give a rip what you believe in. A few, the vocal minority, (kind of like the vocal Christians or the vocal Muslims come to think of it) go around trying to get the 10 commandments out of courthouses and crap like that.

Let me sum it up this way:
A Christian gets up in the morning and acknowledges god and spends (maybe) Sunday in Church
a few atheists get up in the morning and denounce the existence of god, and spend all day Sunday protesting said existence
The rest of us just get up in the morning and on Sunday we sleep in.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Whatever. Just be nice and go buy a bunch of shit you can't afford to get the economy moving... ]]>Dec 17th 2008 11:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/Dec 18th 2008 1:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/]]>Dec 17th 2008 3:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/
Don't worry, Engadget. My Jewish family doesn't get a tree for Hanukkah. You are offending more people by calling it a "Holiday Tree" than you would by calling it a "Christmas Tree."]]>Dec 17th 2008 3:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/Dec 17th 2008 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/Dec 17th 2008 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/17/ge-builds-an-oled-holiday-tree-makes-mistletoe-out-of-disused-r/

Also, since when did a tree with a star ontop of it often decorated with pretty lights (or made of pretty lights) represent any other holiday besides Christmas?

That is not really important, though, because clearly Christmas is the holiday the trees are targeted at and retailers are going overboard to be politically correct.

Anyway, I agree. Speaking as someone who has no theism, anyone who is offended by Christmas tree or menorah or any other damn thing obviously has it way too easy and has way too much time on their hands, since they can get worked up over something like that. My Christmas message to you people is that you can kiss my fat, white, atheist ass over by the manger scene.

C'mon Engadget, if your going to pick and choose when to be politically incorrect you're lame.
