Mate, just want to let you know you're on the wrong side of the road...En route to Xmas lunch
I was back seat driving , and you can do what you like from thereMate, just want to let you know you're on the wrong side of the road...
I was on my way to my son's Greek born parents in law's place for lunch.Saying ‘X-mas’ instead of Christmas is off-putting. You’re free to say it, and I’ll defend your right to freedom of speech and expression, but I’m likewise free to register my disapproval.
Ironically I just had this explain to me (and the rest of the congregation) by a Christian pastor a few weeks ago... Who knew?!If you care to dive down the rabbit hole of knowledge...you will discover...
"Xmas is an abbreviation of Christmas found particularly in print, based on the initial letter chi (Χ) in the Greek Χριστός (Christ)"
Χριστούγεννα

He was Canadian if that shifts your view at allIf that was intended to show his/your bona fides, it failed miserably. With the state of the American church today, there isn’t much an American pastor says that impresses me.
