If you're trying to be politically correct, you should say "Happy Holidays" because this includes holidays and festivities of all religions from Hanukkah to Christmas to Kwanzaa. If you just want to know the correct term for Merry Christmas (ie. Is it Merry Christmas? Happy Christmas?), then Merry Christmas is correct.
