[[Culture War]] is a term used to describe the swaying of what is acceptable in a society between culturally conservative and [[liberal]]. To that end, the War on Christmas is a major skirmish in that war. Each year, more and more secular progressives work to eradicate the right of major retailers to say "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Christmas" in favor of the more benign, and ultimately godless "Happy Holidays." When the retailer gives in, they are less likely to begin using the older terms again, and, in order to save moeny and time, will simply acquiesce to the will of the liberal protesters, saying "Happy Holidays" from that time on.

Conservatives argue that this is a form of censorship by the [[liberal]] minority in society, tasked with the purpose of removing even the smallest mention of the Christmas Holiday.

As is common, individuals with a tendency toward [[liberal]] ideologies will not see the '''War on Christmas''' as real, and may even deny that there is such a controversy.
