Merry Christmas Greetings! ^_^

Postby ChristianKitsune » Wed Dec 24, 2008 10:37 am

I just wanted to wish everyone here on CAA a GREAT Christmas! It represents the beginning of our faith, you guys! ^_^ God really loved us to send his son who grew into the most amazing person ever! So I hope you guys keep that in mind as you celebrate... and open your gifts. That our greatest gift of all was Jesus Christ... (I know it sounds cheesy...sorry. ^^; but it's true!)

I also think this thread would be cool if people posted little Christmas graphics (if anyone has made any...) and to share with us your plans for this holiday!

Tonight my family and I are going to fondue some food! 8D and then we'll go see Christmas lights in a different town....and probably play cards when we get back... its a fun tradition! (But the stuff that makes the fondue pot go is HARD TO FIND! D8)


Anyways! XD Here's my Christmas Card for you guys!

Merry CHRISTmas(Never abbreviate it as X-mas. That is taking the Christ out of Christmas.



Uh....no.


"I have no idea who started using the abbreviation “Xmas” or the reason for it, but I suspect it was simply to abbreviate the term by using the English letter ‘X,’ which represents the Greek letter chi, the first letter of Christos (Cristo") for Christ. If you will note, the first Greek letter of christos, the chi, looks very much like our English letter X. Christos means “anointed one” and comes from the verb chrio (criw), “I anoint.”

Um we speak English. I mean I guess it's cool for the people who are Greek or know the Greek language.

But Id much rather prefer the English version then because Im not fond of algebra.

@ chibiphonebooth- What right do you have in saying that? Stephen was the one that corrected me, so if anybody has that right, it's Stephen's.

I don't want to come off like a jerk on something like this....because after all it is Christmas. But Just because you don't know something, does not make it wrong. If the X stands for Christ (which after some reading around...I was right about) then it means Christ. Just because you did not know that, does not change the fact it means that.

What I see though, are over-sensitive Christians diving on anything they can to feel persecuted. If half the Christians that threw a fit over someone writing X-mas volunteered in a food kitchen or something...this country would be much better off. Pick your battles folks. This sort of thing is what makes the world not take Christians very serious.

I really wasn't trying to feel persecuted. I was just stating my naive opinion. Now that I know this, I will not make a statement like that again.

Egg Nog. Drink it. And destroy some large holiday dinners. And try not to stress out guys. Family things have a way of making you want to headbutt the wall.
