While I agree with your contention that a simple "Merry Christmas" (or "Happy Hanukkah" or "Happy Ramadan") should not offend anyone, I don't think it is over-sensitive atheists who pose the biggest threat to the role of this holiday in North American culture, nor any perceived decline of its representation in stores or at schools.
