I am not trying to start a controversy.Even though it doesn't seem worth your bother, thanks for the reply.

I think it's pretty funny. I live in Ireland, which is seriously Chatolic, yet people still write X-mas. Why am I even bothering with this. It’s not offensive at all. I think it’s pretty funny.

My Jewish friends say it a lot, and a lot of non Jewish friends as well have chosen to say it, meaning that for them it's about culture, not religion. I for one usually say "X'mas", since I'm not a christian. I don't see why this should offend those who are christians.Also, the picture of Saddam couldn't possibly be "offensive". Santa clause isn't a religious phenomena. It's a made up one.Hmm, why did I bother with this. It’s normal for people who don’t celebrate christmas as being the “birth of Christ” to say X’mas.
