Merry Christmas VS Happy Holiday? Happy Birthday Jesus... Everyone in the world has a birthday and once a year most of us do something to celebrate it. Many kids all over the world love it because its their special day. Next to Christmas its one of their favorite days of the year. In America you have every right to celebrate your birthday and call it what you want. Once a year the world celebrates the birthday of the most famous man on earth. That man is Jesus and we say a happy birthday to him in different ways. Some say happy holiday and that is their right. But there isnt anyone that has the right to stop us from saying Merry Christmas. This is not about religion. This is about the birthday of Jesus Christ. Many families say Merry Christmas and hope for a Happ New Year. Our men and women are over seas defending our freedom to celebrate Christmas any way we want. I ask everyone to take a moment to think of those deployed this Christmas wishing they were home. I will fight for anyone to have the freedom to call this a happy holiday. I will lay down my life defending our freedom to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. With that I say Merry Christmas America, and to all a good night Semper Fi, Shep
