X-mas is OK, check out this link



Dan
I realize that this is the case long ago, but this country was founded by
people who came here to avoid Christian persacution, Now in this modern age
we have people wanting get rid of anything to do with Christ.  My kids don't
have a Christmas vacation from school anymore they have a winter holiday.
They're are people who would like to get rid of any mention of Christ.  I
will never allow myself to be sucked in to this anti-Christian propaganda,
This will be the last I will say on this subject, since is not about
Imperials, just don't be fooled on what the modern day meaning of xmas is
