The word Christmas is made up of two words : Christ and Mass. Language has replaced Christ with X. Christ is missing. What's your opinion?

I say Christmas but when writing it in a message then I would type Xmas just to save me the time of pressing every letter... but everything else it would always be Christmas due to the fact I find it sounds much nicer then Xmas lol

Yes, I would usually say Christmas, but I'm sure that to save time I have been guilty of writing real quick and may have said xmas...

It's easier to say Christmas and besides, I don't want to feel like Christ is being replaced

If you do some fun research you'll find that xmas doesn't mean taking the christ out of christmas at all. On the wikipage for Xmas you will find this: ""X" comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Χριστός, translated as "Christ"."
In the end, I use both, because I'm not very religious. Sometimes I'll even use the word Yuletime!
