Yeah, it's ridiculous. First of all, I don't actually know anybody who gets offended if you say Merry Christmas. Even my Jewish friends and co-workers, they have been so inundated with it all of their lives, it just sort of rolls off of them now. They stopped caring, if they ever did.
Secondly, why not have one phrase that covers everything? I think this story is less about the argument, and more about the people who partake in it.
