Re: Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas?
So, I started receiving greeting cards. The ones from my company and vendors are very politically correct wishing me Happy Holidays. But others from friends are semi religious / semi holidayish. Now what really threw me off is a card I received from the mother of my daughter’s kindergarten friend. The card has “Jesus the Saviour” on the front. Inside it quotes a saying from the Bible and she writes very openly some religious greetings. Now she knows well what religion I am.
I honestly have no problem wishing someone a merry Christmas neither do I mind if someone wishes me the same in person, but for someone to pen it down and make it ONLY religious is a bit odd, especially in this day and age of political correctness.
OK, I am done. and by the way a very happy Eid and happy holidays to all!
Oh what if I send her a card with a couple of bakraas and a cow and a smiling qasaaee with a knife in his hand…Eid Mubarak!
its a good opportunity for you to talk to your kids about your religion, and how it is different from other.
and if your daughters frends mother really knows about Christianity, than discuss those quotes with her
at least i would have done that (but do some research work as well. )
phir yeh is ka akheri card hota
