x mas was initially invitented by those that did not like Christmas (or more specifically Christ) most people today use it as a abbreviation, not realizing its orgin. I however, always make sure to use Christmas for that reason (I have been mainly nice, with a little naughty mixed, how bout you? ^_^)

Some people say that when saying X-mas, one is trying to cut Christ out of Christmas

X-mas is a shortening of Christmas. It seems better to me just to spell out Christmas.

Christmas comes from Christ's Mass... and refers back to the party of the start of Christ yuletide is an abbreviation. and ordinarily utilized in a rush and via people who have not considered or brush aside the belief of the reason of the season

Some people think that putting the X in place of Christ is just an innocent way to abbreviate Christmas. But they're leaving out the most important part of Christmas... CHRIST.
It's Jesus' birthday!!!

"X-mas" is just a short-hand way of writing it. Some people find taking the "Christ" out offensive though. No, I have been a good kid!
Merry Christmas! =D

Well the difference is very clear to see. CHRIST is taken and replaced with an X. Atheist started that many years ago. I don't think that's quite how that word is spelled but anyway they don't believe in putting CHRIST is Christmas. They don't believe in it.

X-mas is an abrevition. It may as well be C-mas, butthey chose an X instead.
