Just one thing has bothered me reading all the posts about Christmas, and that’s the use of Xmas!
Christmas doesn’t mean a thing to me, as I’m Atheist, but please respect those who do believe, and use the proper name.
Thanks.
And for any people who are offended by the term ‘Christmas’, please use the term ‘holiday’.
Thank you.

You do know its the Greek letter Chi not an X don’t you? Chi being the first letter of Christ in Greek then the Latin Mas. Only been in use 400 odd years.
Or am I feeding the troll?

Life is to short so go and grow some and come back when your man enough. I’ve had enough of PC Britain and I don’t care if I offend anyone using the term Xmas. So what, it has the same meaning

+1…well said mickey!
I’m an athiest, thank god
Oh well if thats how you feel Happy Easter hehe
Christmas is Christmas
Xmas is the same just for lazy typists like me
Holidays are something I take in the summer.
It get’s my goat when someone comes on and goes “Don’t use that term as it offends those people” Don’t wash with me. They must lead a sad life if there to be offended by everything that goes on. There lucky there is a “Xmas” with the way some councils ban people from putting up decs outside the homes “just in case it offends people”
Stay at home, don’t watch TV, don’t read the news paper, or better live the same life as Curryfart and go back in time when we had nothing. Then you won’t be offended

+1…well said that man
I did a lot of material into Waddesdon Manor before Chrimbo and they were advertising their “Winter Light Festival.” I guess it’s so it appeals to the natives of Aylesbury who’dve flocked to the stately home on their flying carpets.
Mini Muckaway has been watching Disney Junior channel and several programs have said “happy winter fun day.”

What a plonker.
Use of Xmas as opposed to Christmas to some can be offensive as its a belief that X= crossing the Christ out of Christmas.
Me I don’t care, as people who get offended or offend themselves on behalf of others I find the most offensive of all. .
Suppose that means I offend myself regularly… which is true but only with the curtains shut

I know the feeling. it’s like looking in the mirror and saying to yourself “What an ugly ■■■■■■ I am”

)

No, just hate the PC lot.
In the last 7 years this is the most relaxing “Xmas” ever
I’m an atheist too (I hope Jesus doesn’t know) but Christmas for me is 10 days off work, lots of booze, some nice free stuff off the family and a bloody good excuse to sit back relax. What’s not to like■■?
I was enjoying Christmas ,then some silly sod went and brought Religion into it.
