How does your jewishness know the person to whom you are saying "Merry Christmas" is a Christian or even professes to be a Christian.

I'm a Jew. I like saying "Merry Christmas" to Christians. I actually don't like it when people say it to me. I don't say anything about it because I'm a nice boy, but the muttering part of my brain says, "We're not all Christians, you know." So, to you Christians I say a hearty, "Merry Christmas to your entire mispochah."

The Buddhist teaching of anatta addresses the question that David raises in his article. For example, see here:

The Buddha seems to have said: don't waste time wondering about what the self is, just stop being a jerk. How do you do that? He proposed the Eightfold Path.
