>Doesn't matter. The obviously Sikh service station attendant wished me "Merry Christmas" yesterday. I wished him one back. Offense neither taken nor intended, instead I appreciate the courtesy and one day should have an opportunity to reciprocate. These behaviors used to be ingrained in modern civilization but now it seems that a large segment of the population are fanatics, offended by/denying validity in any position other than their own.

>Also btw - needless to say, Trump posted "Merry Christmas" on Twitter today, but yesterday he posted "Wishing you a Bright and Happy #Hanukkah". I suppose that's easy enough when your daughter and grandkids are Jewish, but I hope he has enough class/confounds critics by sending Muslim Americans similar respect on Eid ul Fitr at the end of Ramadan.

May I assume that he'll push for proportionate representation of atheists in all houses, from city halls to Senate then?

And I do try to find a polite way to move myself out of anything related to religion, including these greetings. If one really insists, I then reply with the above "not applicable, I'm not a member".
