Mouse-over today's Google doodle and up pops a celebratory message: "Happy Holidays."
This seems to have sparked a debate in US on whether Google has gone a step too far to remain politically correct.
A recent poll conducted in the US suggests 67 percent of Americans prefer to say "Merry Christmas," while 18 percent pick "Happy Holidays."
Today's doodle depicts a winter scene, with two children in an one-horse open sleigh.
This is the second major doodle Google has done in a week. Earlier this week, Google marked the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, with a Doodle.
