Now Christmas is comming nearer, I must comment on this expression that has come into English as well as Danish language: X-mas.

I find it rather alarming that the attitude of the world and many businesses is so anti-Jesus or Anti-Christ that people do not want to say Christmas, referring to Christ or Jesus Christ, Son of God, that now it has become x-mas. We have x-man, x-wife, x-boyfriend, x-girlfriend, x-mas.

So people will soon and some do already make other stories around Christmas rather than hearing about Jesus, they hear about mythological characters, idols, invented characters etc.

Let us not stamp on our cultural heritage and let pagans take over. Who would joke about the Muslim special days in TV or radio or give them a nickname. Despite the Mohammed cartoons and what seemed to be a determination in Danish media against being censored by the Muslim world, it seems to me they have been censored by themselves.

Why should we call it X-mas when we should be happy for our freedom to celebrate and call it Christmas? Christians are still being tortured, terrorised and even murdered for loving the Christ, whom we celebrate on Christmas. So in respect and honor of Jesus Christ and those persecuted for His Names sake, let us call Christmas Christmas, and use it everywhere we can and whenever we can.
