I have seen the abbreviation for Christmas as XMas. If you use this abbreviation, why?
I have just seent his happening more and more frequently. It seems just like everything else...that people are more and more trying to take Christ out of everything. People just call it an abbreviation. Are the four extra letters really that hard to write?? LOL
Just curious about your thoughts here!

I am sorry, but I do not like that. This is where I am traditional and have to draw the line. Christmas should be called Christmas, that is just the way it is. You cannot and should not change something like that that has been around for over 2,000 years.

I think it is awful that the stores are not even using Merry Christmas anymore. It is like the holiday has changed or something. I think people should yell about it.
