Just don't remind them how many pagan symbols are in there.
Happy Sol Invictus, everyone.

"You got your Saturnalia on my Yule!"

Gotta admit, as an agnostic who was raised gently Christian, that’s part of the reason I’m still comfortable putting all this stuff up in our house. Took a while to figure out a tree topper I liked but one year a saw a dove and that feels less religious to me.

If you should shout "happy holidays" in front of that house, it all just catches fire instantly.
Thoughts and prayers for the family loving under such dangerous circumstances.

I get that it's a joke, but "happy holidays" isn't a secular alternative to "merry christmas", as the word "holidays" is literally the words "holy" + "day".

I don't even consider Christmas religious any longer. Santa is portrayed far, far more often than Jesus, and that's just fine by me.
Religious people appropriated this holiday and renamed it (see Saturnalia). It's only right for us all to lean into the future being pure Santa.

I think this is their version of fighting back.
I'm just going to come out and say it. Have your Christmas. Nobody else gives a shit about you or what you believe. So celebrate, enjoy. Nobody cares if you do. You don't have to prove anything to anyone about it, and we wouldn't notice if you tried.
So Merry Christmas, happy Festivus, happy holidays, happy Hanukkah.... Whatever you celebrate at this time of year, I hope it's a positive experience and that you and your loved ones enter into the new year as happy and as healthy as they can be.
But don't mistake that sentiment for giving any shits about what you do to celebrate.

Happy Saturnalia!
