Marcy,
Seriously? The word Christmas is a compound word combining Christ, as in Jesus
Christ, & the word mass or a Christian religious celebration. As Keith stated
in the original message, in the truest sense, Jesus is the reason for the
season. Well, as long as that season is recognized to be Christmas.
I fail to see why you find Jesus so offensive or @ least the mention of him so
offensive. I'd be interested in hearing your answer. I'm serious about that.
