What if these people said: To Christians, Merry Christmas; to Jews, Happy Chanukah; to others, Happy Holidays.

Doesn't inclusive mean ACKNOWLEDGING DIFFERENCES? It doesn't mean: SUPPRESSING DIFFERENCES.

As Sobran says,
Christmas is the season when polite people make every effort to avoid mentioning Christ. They seem to be afraid it would spoil the festive mood of our pagan holiday season. The modern world actually treats our Lord as an incongruous figure at His own birthday.
