It's NOT Holiday Gifts

Just want to get this off my chest. Today, I heard someone say they were almost finished with their Christmas shopping, then said, oh I am sorry, I mean Holiday gifts. What? I am in no way calling my gifts Holiday gifts and not Christmas gifts. Christmas contains the word "Christ" and that is THE only reason why we have Christmas. Because God sent His only begotten son, to earth, as a baby, that would grow into a man who would tell others about salvation. That is why Christmas is so special. No, this Christ child was not born on the 25th of December, as far as we know, but that date still signifies a day, in history, that this child was born. So for me, I will always say Christmas, not holidays. It's not Holiday gifts, or Happy Holidays to me, but Christmas gifts and Merry Christmas is what you will hear from me.
