"X" is pronounced "cai" with a hard "c" in greek. While taking notes in Baptist history, my professor would always abbrev. Christ by putting X or Xn for christian. I do believe Christ and his birth is being taken out of Christmas but I wanted to offer a little insight on the whole "xmas" thing.A New Chapterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11629251854618425159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479773871921382128.post-38587326212338694282011-11-11T14:09:37.434-06:002011-11-11T14:09:37.434-06:00Thank you for this blog post!!

I LOVE this post. I,...Hi Krista, nice to meet you! I LOVE this post. I, too, REALLY dislike "xmas"...and so many people use it now. Our daughter Gabby attends a small Christian school and truly gets to experience CHRISTmas in every way. Our son on the other hand attends a public high school and is not allowed to mention Christ, Jesus, God or even pray out loud...we are thankful he has a strong foundation. So many people get upset with just the mention of Christ but yet every other religion/faith is totally acceptable. It's sad... thanks for sharing your post, I agree with you:)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380512663464560271noreply@blogger.com
