So what are you are up to for Xmas

[TinRattler]

Its Christmas not Xmas please don't butcher the name just because companies do it. There is no need to remove Christ from Christmas.
Also I spend the day at home so like always I prefer it chill and relaxed huge parties are not for me.

Pedantic much

I don't celebrate it (personal/religious grounds)... But I'm gonna visit family and stuff my face.

Usually, my mom and I spend the whole day preparing the Christmas dinner. We have a strong Christmas spirit.

I am not but like it or not CHRISTMAS is a Christian holiday.
You are not forced to celebrate it nobody is forcing you to,
but if you Insist on celebrating it honor its original meaning and why we celebrate Christmas not Xmas in the first place.
As I find the term deeply disrespectful.

X as an abbreviation has ties to Greek and it's been used for hundreds of years. It isn't removing christ from christmas. You're mad over nothing

Let's not ruin the festive spirit because of spelling, now. However you want to call it, everyone is entitled to celebrate how they see fit, or not at all, if they so desire.

Edit: More on topic, nothing incredible scheduled here, but I like cozy and quiet.

We are talking about English though and not Greek otherwise we could apply that logic for any word from any language if it did not suit me and besides it has been Traditionally called Christmas in the English Language and that for a very long time and not Xmas as Xmas is a modern term and not traditionally used for it.
And besides I do feel quite strongly about it and nearly requested if people celebrate it at least respect the Holiday otherwise celebrate however you want to celebrate it.
Calling it Xmas does also feel very commercially to me and it does kind of ruin the spirit and meaning of Christmas for me.
Also if I was mad I would not reply to it I am just a bit displeased.

I don't disagree with that and in the End everyone has to find there own way they want celebrate it but I still keep the right to at least request of saying its proper name.
As Christmas still is what Christmas is nobody is forced to celebrate it and if they do they do it out of there own choice and I don't want that the original meaning of Christmas to get forgotten over some modern Commercial term like Xmas where people only think of Santa Claus and me presents and consume.
