Does it offend you when someone says "Merry Christmas", or does it offend you when someone says "Happy Holidays" instead of Merry Christmas.
And why?

Not at all, they all mean the same thing.
Both mean the same thing :/ But some people ahve been known to get offended (mainly middle to late generations).
The only annoying thing about Christmas is that it's advertised waaaaay too early making it the year's most boring holiday. November should be the earliest Christmas is advertised, not August and/or September :/

Ahhh, the question is clear to me nowI thought you meant "do you find it offensive when someone says Merry Christmas to you instead of Happy Holidays or vice versa

I wouldn't really care if someone said Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas, because either they're too obsessed with what they believe in or they think Happy Holidays sounds better than Merry Christmas. I don't think saying Happy Holidays instead of saying Merry Christmas should be taken that seriously, and I don't really think it justifies in what you believe in either.
Who are they to say that we can't celebrate christmas because we're not Christians? Aren't they contradicting themselves since "God" said that we should all be one and enjoy christmas together?
