Until about 2 minutes ago, I believed that X-Mas was a disrespectul, pegan, way of taking Christy out of Christmas. Why? Because that is what I was taught- possibly by people who believed that because of what they were taught.
Then, I was reading a blog that I keep up with, and the person posted a link that explains the origin of X-MAS...which makes sense to me.
Now...I doubt I'll start using X-MAS as a greeting at Christmas- simply because there are so many people who would not know... and because of that I would not want to discount Christ.
Here's the link if you're interested....
