Because people apparently think others are trying to take "christ" out of Christmas... and because people just enjoy being offended over everything lol..

I see nothing wrong with it. Some people just enjoy being offended lol.

It makes sense when you are buying cards to mail out to lots of different people, some of whom do not celebrate Christmas. It's the thought that you remember them that should count!
