Just wondering if anyone of you knows why and where the phrase X-mas came from? For those who dont. It came form the antichrist people. They would put an X over the word christ in christmas, any time they saw the word. Therefore the phase came X-mas. So Please thing before you use that phrase, and just what that X is covering when you use it.

I am no Bible expert but I never could figure out where Santa, the Reindeer and Elves where at in the Bible, must have missed that chapter. The Easter Bunny is another one, when did he come along in Christian history? It is all just folklore as far as I am concerned. Happy Holidays

Dave,
I'm afraid you are mistaken. The X-mas does not come from the anti-Christ people. It comes from the Greeks.

This is from Mac at thestraightdope.com [img src="[/img] "] Why is Christmas Abbreviated XMAS? That letter may look like an "X" and walk like an "X" and quack like an "X," but it isn't an "X." That's the Greek letter "chi" which is pronounced about like "ch" was in Old English ... which is to say, about how it's pronounced in German today, or in a few imported words, like "Christ" or "Christmas," for example. "X" (as in chi) was used as an abbreviation for Christ from early times, perhaps initially as a camouflage for the religion. It was the first letter of the word Christos (meaning "the anointed one," e.g., the Messiah) and fortuitously was cross-shaped, so there seemed to be some symbolism or double meaning. It's been used as a scholarly and not-so-scholarly abbreviation since.

See KTPKING likes his union that still refers to it in the contract as "Christmas holiday period." Though now that I posted it someone will want it changed. My Christmas tree is up as well and my 4 yr old is all jacked up about Santa. How do you know Santa is from God? Cause only God can make a kid that happy.

There is no god and Jesus hates you. Religion is nothing more than after-life insurance. Merry Xmas to all you sheeple.
PS. That isn't god making the kiddies so happy, it's that drunkard mall santa and his magic "North Pole".

Maybe it was Jesus Alou the baseball player. Which God are we referring to? The Muslim God, Hindu God, or maybe the Myan God. It all seems sooo complicated, I believe all Religions are just based on Guilt, with different Holidays.

That isn't god making the kiddies so happy, it's that drunkard mall santa and his magic "North Pole". You make me sick to my stomach.How do u think this world got hear? Surely not by you God sent his son to the cross for you to die for your sins .God has unconditional love for even you the type of person you are.You better believe in God and be saved or you will burn in hell when you do die.Sometimes it takes something tragic to happen in your life before you pick your bible up and start reading it before you believe,thats what I did and I am so glad I did .I hope nothing happens to you or your family but you better start to think the way u r going you r going to need GOD someday.Im sorry but GOD right now is in my life and one who denies him and his son will be cast into hell. GOD BLESS YOU I don't know if you were being serious or not, but that was absolutely fucking hilarious!! Thanks FedUp, you made my day with that string of nonsense; it was HELL enough just trying to read that babble. Did your cat just happen to type up this well-thought out pious diatribe, if so, kudos to Tounces.

So let me follow your belief system.
To create a Cow you smack to rocks together and wait a billion years.
That is every bit as crazy an idea as creation.
ScottR "man I have not seen a turkey all week"
wplap "Scott stop useing that turkey call and smack these rocks together, you'll have a turkey in no time."

Kessinger, that is absolutely correct my friend, and if you can't find two rocks to smack together, you can simply bang your head against the pavement over and over until a turkey is born. Once that turkey is born, you can then have your god magically inseminate our "rock-born" turkey will his omnipotent seed, therefore creating an entire race of turkeys that can worship the initial "Christ Turkey" for all eternity.

GOD BLESS YOU I don't usually get into discussions about religion, but you just pissed me off. I Believe, in my own way, but don't go forcing my belief on anyone else, and you had better get your bible back out and sling it at yourself. Read your Ten Commandments and how about "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone". You are not GOD and should not be going around passing judgements on others. IT IS NOT YOUR JOB TO JUDGE!!!! You remind me of my sister, and maybe you two should hook up.

Religion is one of many topics which should not be debated. In no way can you force someone to agree with your beliefs.

Someone needs to start a thread in the Politics Forum about the taxation of religion. Combined with the legalization of marijuana(and taxation) we would have enough surplus to have free healthcare, a better school system, higher paid teachers, every state could have a free university, and of course the politicians could skim off the top without hurting the bottom-line too much.
No more free rides Jesus!

I am Christian. But, I hate zealots of any kind myself. Religion is between you and your God or lack of one and its no one elses business. Nor should my religous beliefs be something I aspire to FORCE others to follow through law or shame.
I shouldn't have to tell everyone what I believe they should see it in how I live.

What I want to know, that is if someone can answer this is how can there be only one God when there is so many religions? Every Christian, Catholic, Baptist, Protestant etc. serves the same God yet go about it in different ways. Not to mention the other religions overseas as well as here.
Did God create the world in seven days as we have been told over the years? Or is it really created with the big bang? I do not have the answers to this nor do I expect anyone on here to have them as well. I do believe in God, Jesus and the Virgin Mary. I believe there is a Heaven and Hell.
Bottom line is this, we just don't know. I do have a problem with people trying to push their religion on me more so when I do not ask them about it to begin with. If I die and go to Hell then so be it. You can always say that you did your best to save me. I will let it go at that.
Also I still refuse to do anything when it comes to the kids at Christmas. These kids might very well need it but my team and my past teams have gotten burnt on who we got before. For this reason I can not find it in myself to give to these kids. What I plan on doing is going to the Home of the Innocents and do something there.
