X Am I being picky when I say "Please leave 'Christ' in Christmas"? I know it's a little thing, but, by writing 'X-mas' it seems to me that we are taking out the whole reason we even celebrate this holiday just to save a few key strokes . Just my opinion of

- # 84586 if you negate those who celebrate for the presents, or for the excuse to drink, or for the day off work, or for the reason to party, or for a morning in bed, the amount of people who truly celebrate Xmas is lower than the nos of actors in a 1 man show!

- # 90618 You know, many people have an artificial Christmas tree so they can use it year after year to save money. Why not do the same thing with roses on Valentine's Day. You can leave them up until Easter- maybe hang some Hershey's Kisses on them. Quite festive.

Actually in greek Christ starts with "chi" or X (in their alphabet) and the English word is derived from it and with other countries within Greece/Amernia region the X makes the "Chris" sound phonetically. If you really want to keep Christ in Christmas you should explain this to others. Good way to bring Him up.

Xmas is derived from a mixture of Greek and English. Greeks used X as the symbol for Chi, Christo or Xristo. X is the Greek symbol for Christ. In early Christian times, X was used as the symbol for Christ himself.

Not to mention that Christians stole the holiday from a combination of rituals and celebrations from the Druids, Pagans, Norse, and Romans... No, I think an "X" will do just fine... moron.

We celebrate the birth of a dude whose existence caused more wars than any other. And we celebrate it by spending money, giving gifts and worshiping a fat man from the north pole. Yeah, X marks the spot.
