Xmas ornament
Here’s a holiday surprise that only the dictionary can provide. Do you find the word “Xmas,” as an abbreviation for Christmas, offensive? Many people do.
You won’t find Xmas in church songbooks or even on many greeting cards. Xmas is popularly associated with a trend towards materialism, and sometimes the target of people who decry the emergence of general “holiday” observance instead of particular cultural and religious ritual.
But the history of the word “Xmas” is actually more respectable — and fascinating — than you might suspect. First of all, the abbreviation predates by centuries its use in gaudy advertisements. It was first used in the mid 1500s. X is the Greek letter “chi,” the initial letter in the word Χριστός. And here’s the kicker: Χριστός means “Christ.” X has been an acceptable representation of the word “Christ” for hundreds of years. This device is known as a Christogram. The mas in Xmas is the Old English word for “mass.” (The thought-provoking etymology of “mass” can be found here.) In the same vein, the dignified terms Xpian and Xtian have been used in place of the word “Christian.”

when you leave Christ out of CHRISTMASS you still are missing the real meaning. You can come up with all kinds of explanations if you so desire but X doesn't come close to Christ.
Every freakin year this gets beat to hell why cant we just live and let live? If somebody says happy holidays or merry Xmas does it effect you. Absolutely not.

I guess you think that when you tell someone over this site to shut up , they are to just do that, well I won't shut up. I will defend how I feel until the day I die. If you don't care to read what I have to say you have that choice.
Ron , i can build ya one , i think i have some white or black alum. from my race car. i have a metal brake so can do a pretty good one i think. Then you can hang it on your TREE. It's not gonna have top storage though lol

I remember as I kid when we went to town to Christmas shop. Some stores used xmas in their window displays. I asked my mother why they spelled Christmas that way. She hushed me and told me that they were jews. Now, looking back, I think they were just doing it the easy way and to save space.

It's just a nice gesture a friendly message. We got the rest of the year to bash our brothers or neighbors, let's leave it be and try not to cast stones.

WOW
Haven't checked my post all week. Didn't know a simple request could cause such an uproar!! Sorry if it offended anyone with my abbreviated word of such an important holiday. Guess i'm just getting too used to trying to 'shortcut' words in a txt (text)!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS, to all.
Since he got a new beagle dogbox to go to trials with early, his mom just hoped i could find an ornament to wrap & open at our christmas exchange & he could use on his tree in the future.
Thanks for ideas & offers. If you can put something together Mike, It would be greatly appreciated or we'll try to do the popsickle/toothpick deal. Take care, Ron.
Merry Christmas/Xmas :)
Merry Christmas from Michigan
