Um..defintly Christmas. And i don't know why people say "x" instead of christmas if they are abbreviating*sp?*. it takes just as long to say "x-mas" as "christ-mas".

Hm... I never thought of it that. But yeah, you are right. The X may be an excuse to just take out the Christ in christmas! (not an abbreviation)

I always say Christmas, but when people say have a happy x-mas I just say Merry Christmas to you too.

x_Hikari_x Well, X is actually greek for 'Christ'. So it's not actually taking the 'Christ' out of it, really. But many people don't actually know that. Personally, I don't mind it, but I don't use it, simply because I know that most people don't know what it really means, and use 'X' as the english letter as opposed to the greek one.
...if that makes any sense at all, lol. Oooh, really? I didn't know! Either way though, I don't really care what it's called. :3 It's still Christmas, and I still love it! mrgreen

Agreed! It's all about Christ! When Christmas comes, i usually tell all my friends that. A lot of people forgot WHY we celebrate CHRISTmas, and that it's just some selfish money-getting present day. Of course, presents are a plus. xD
But i look foward to the day our Saviour was born. ^_^
