If you are Jehovah Witness or Jewish..

Would you get "offended" if someone sent you a Christmas card?

I have a friend whose wife is JW and I would like to send a card as a greeting, but I don't want to offend her or the family.

Should I sent it or no?

JW and Jewish are two different ends of the spectrum. If your friend is not JW then send it.

I wouldn't mind getting one...I know NOTHING about JW - although I would personally be leary about sending them a christmas hard. Maybe something that just says peace on earth?

Not sure about JW's - I'm not sure what the protocol is with cards

For Jewish friends - a generic happy holidays card would suffice

Jehovah Witnesses do not celebrate christmas. I would just send a "season's greetings" card that does not make mention of the holidays at all.

One of my students is a JW and she is not allowed to participate in ANYTHING related to ANY holiday. She couldn't even watch Monster House Halloween week.

I would do a season's greetings card.

How about just wishing them a Healthy Happy New Year.
