Follow me here : Christmas = Xmas (for short)
so, Christians = Xians (as an insult). It sounds like we're from another galaxy.
And I just did a "Check Spelling". Guess what? "No misspellings found" . Then I did a goggle search and found tons of "Xian", including a web page by realtime 3D artist Christian Gruel, and a Gran Hyatt Xian (apparently Hyatt at Xian, China)

do you mean XI'AN the one of the four great ancient capitals of china. Or Zion/Sion which refers to either Judaism as a whole, the land of Israel, Jerusalem, or Mount Zion which had a huge Jebusite Fort/Castle that King David conquered and was name the City of David.
Many racists call the Jews(or supporters) Zionists. every common in white power groups (Aryan Nation...) and Muslims.
If you did mean Xi'an wikipedia has a awesome article on it, which has a really good picture. Used it in a paper I wrote a semester ago.

If it was Zion/Sion the internet is full of resources. Careful some are quite hateful and full of lies.

A term usually used by non-believers as an offensive way of saying Christian.
