| 534.2 | Season's Greetings -- 1991 | KAOFS::S_BROOK | Tue Dec 24 1991 10:47 | 23 | |
It has been brought to my attention that there are some who might
be a little sensitive to the use of the term "Merry Christmas" in
a Digital Notesfile, because of the fact that the very name of the
holiday implies a particular faith and may considered to be a denial
of the faiths of others, and as such contrary to policy.
I am quite certain that no-one here in making such a greeting would
wish to deny the faiths of others, so I am certain that no one will
deny that Merry Christmas is used synonymously for Season's Greetings.
(After all for most of us who celebrate Christmas, if the truth is
told, most of what we actually celebrate is based on the pagan
Festival of Winter rather than a religious festival)
I am going to reflect the sensitivity of the subject by changing the
topic title to reflect this situation, and hope to have a discussion
with other moderators around Digital to determine their feelings on
the subject.
Anyway, to all, whatever your beliefs, may the next week be a time
of peace, of relaxation, of enjoyment, of reflection on the year past
and an opportunity to look forward to the challenges of the coming year.
