can somebody tell me what an 'x-mas' is?

so it's what? 3 days before christmas and i've bought... ummm... let me count... oh yeah, 0 gifts... the only consolation i have is knowing that i am certainly not the only one out there who'll probably wait until christmas eve to buy gifts... and that i did the same thing last year.....

so you're wondering why i'm highlighting the christ in christmas... at bible study on friday, lani said that when her mom was a teacher, she couldn't put up a banner that said merry christmas unless she removed the 't'.....

i had a muslim roommate a couple of years ago... i wasn't offended when she covered her head in respect to allah... i wasn't offended when she got up early to eat during ramadan... i wasn't offended when she spoke of the qu'ran... why are we so offended by 'christ' in the middle of a word?

and furthermore... how can you remove christ from christmas? what else is christmas about?

what's next? forbid jewish boys from wearing yarmulkes? ban crosses around the neck? is it really that offensive?
