I don't understand why people are so offended by the use of Xmas.
Don't those know that X = Christ? Back in the Roman days Christians were persecuted and to get around the law instead of using Christ they used an X to remember and keep His name alive and active.
Xmas = Christmas = Xmas = Christmas

Image result for why is christmas called xmas www.patheos.comXmas (also X-mas or X'mas) is a common abbreviation of the word Christmas. ... The "X" comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Χριστός, which in English is "Christ". The "-mas" part is from the Latin-derived Old English word for Mass. Good old Google, yeah I looked it up.
