I think, if someone wishes you Merry Christmas, or Happy Hanukkah or whatever, regardless of what beliefs you adhere to, say “Thank you”. Please don’t take offence. It is a wishing of good will to you. Take it as a blessing. It is not necessary for everyone to say, and mean, the same thing. We, on this planet, have the privilege to be able to enjoy multiple beliefs.
There is far too much searching out and calling out of perceived offences. Differences are not by nature threats.
We cannot survive like that.
