Christmas or Xmas

[BigAl1]

Does anyone else object to the term "Xmas". I believe that Christmas is about the birth of Christ and not "X. What do you think?

 

[BigRoy]

I'm no expert and it's a long time since I've been to church but I seem to remember that the X represents the cross

 

[BrianStAlbans]

Call it whatever you want.As a lapsed Roman Catholic/ Born again Atheist married to a Hindu I'll call it my winter holidays...Brian

So this is what the chat forum is reduced to, knew it would happen one day so I'm not surprised. Debating (scuse me just sneezed all over the screen) the difference in Xmas and Christmas, is as low as we have got so far, but I like it down here so......I don't like the X in Xmas, I also don't like the F in money it costs either! Bah Humbug!

Lol - that last bit was excellent, I had to read it twice though before I understood what you meant. However - 100 lines 'must not use the 'F' word' on my desk for tomorrow.

Xmas,lets Xamine. Christmas to be Xact,I'm no Xpert but I would Xpect that to those who believe in Christs Xsistance it is a time to Xpress thier belief,Xtend the hand of friendship and Xcercise the ritual attacted to the time of year.Those who Xempt themselves from such belief,myself for Xample,may see Xmas in a different light...Let me Xpand. Xmas to me is a time of Xess,where people drink to the Xtreem,eat until they nearly Xplode or Xpire.Lay Xhausted Xposing themselves to the same old movie or probably the X factor Xmas special on TV. The shops,with thier Xteriors lit up to entice sell an Xpance of Xtra Xmas Xcrement to Xploit us with...Xaggeration I hear you Xclaim,well maybe but I beg you try an Xperiment next Xmas. Book a site,nothing to Xotic, take your nearest and dearest with you,have daily Xcursions,catch an Xmas Xtravaganza or an Xhibition,Xplore the Xclusive local shops and Xperiment with a new concept...."The traditional family Christmas".......HANG ON...that sounds just like the thing I don't believe in......Oh bolX...........anyway HAPPY WHATEVER ...Brian (",) xxxxxxxx
