Actually I still don't know what you mean. Well maybe this is what you mean - to John and to many who just go by Sound, xmas and Christmas are the same. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
However, I personally see xmas spelling for Santa clause and Christmas for the birth of Jesus. Sometimes, like many, I may have used the word xmas simply because its a shorter word to type. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
But to really remind people of the true spirit of Christmas, then it should be spelt 'Christmas' because it is Jesus Christs birthday<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Lennon has always used the word xmas for his song however, same cover versions portray baby Jesus in that song. I personally don't think he meant christs birthday but only Yoko knows that.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
So YOU ARE RIGHT, who am I to judge weather he acknowledged JESUS or not. It's just that in the song he doesn't.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
DID i GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME?? <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
JESUS CHRIST!!
