John,
 
You are aware, of course, that the word holiday comes from the old (as in
sometime prior to the 12th century) English word haligdaeg which means "holy
day." Are you sure you want to burden your politically correct friends with an
overtly religious holy day?
 
Regards,
 
Del
(who is not at all interested in being politically correct....)

Holiday    Greetings


For Our Politically Correct Friends: 

      Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for
an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive,
gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the
most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular
practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion
and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or
secular traditions at all. 
      We also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and
medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted
calendar year 2006, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of
other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. 
      Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country
nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. 
      And without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability,
religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee. 
      By accepting these greetings you are accepting the following terms: 

*	This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. 

*	It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. 

*	It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the
wishes for herself or himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law and
is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. 

      This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application
of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent
holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement
of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher." 

For The Rest Of Our Friends: 

      Here's wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas and a Healthy, Prosperous
and Happy New Year.
