Christmas vs. XMas

Just a little thought during the season. Someone wise (mom) once told Elizabeth and I that it is wrong to write XMas as a short version of Christmas because you take the "Christ" out of Christmas. Isn't He what it's all about? I was just a child when she told us that in Dale City, VA, and I still remember it to this day. I hope you will too. Merry CHRISTmas!
