Remember when Christmas was a family holiday when people went out of their way to be kind other people … instead of a nasty -- my way or the highway -- political football?
When I was young, and still a Catholic, I remember one nun telling me that the “X” in “Xmas” actually came from the crucifix. The “X” in “Xmas” also happens to strongly resemble the “X” in that symbol on the Catholic altar – the one with a giant “P” on the “X” – so, “Xmas” has never offended me.
And sadly, people are still being offended by this holiday: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/12/23/pennsylvania-family-ordered-to-take-down-jesus-christmas-display-after-neighbor-said-it-was-offensive.html

That sounds like a line for Playboy. Santa hats, anyone?

Keep Sol in Sol Invictus!
(Reminds me of the joke, how do we know the sun is Jewish? His name is Sol!)
