When 'christ' is Replaced With 'X' In Christmas by LOC1(m): 8:53pm On Dec 25, 2015
On this momentous day I write to correct the use of X to replace the word Christ in christmas. I feel it is very wrong and it's a shame christians are guilty of this act. It is sadening seeing the name 'christ' who is the reason for this season replaced with a letter I will term not befiting to replace the name of he who came to this world, died for our sins and brought salvation unto every soul . The bible says 'that he is given a name above every other name' I implore us all to accord Christ the full honour by never substituting 'X' with 'christ'
Merry Christmas

Don't bother urself over nothing..
“Xmas” is not a non-religious version of “Christmas”. The “X” is actually indicating the Greek letter “Chi”, which is short for the Greek word , meaning “Christ”. So “Xmas” and “Christmas” are equivalent in every way except their lettering.
