DEVOUT Muslims Appointed to high positions in Homeland Security

[Young Herman]

We have dozens of devout Jews in high positions of government who are more loyal to Israel then the USA, like Joesph Isadore Lieberman. No one seems to have a problem with that though.....

Um, no, wrong again.
Really, you need to learn about xianity before you make comments.
I find it humorous that the vocal ones are uneducated in so many of the basics.

While I enjoy the false statements you make and your self-righteous umbrage, you are wrong.

Here are the results of the top hits. Feel free to seach for yourself. It’s always good to do that so you look like you know what you’re talking about.

So I did your research for you.

The idea of using “X” in place of Christ is not a modern idea. In the Modern Roman Alphabet, which comes from the Greeks who were before Rome, the first letter of the word “Christ” is “chi” which is represented by a symbol similar to the letter “X.”

Xmas - Putting Christ's Initial X in Christmas - Myth vs Fact
Thus, Xmas is not directly a way of secularizing the holiday, but since 'X' is not Chi in English, we read the word as X-mas and see no connection with Christ.

Xmas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The word "Christ" and its compounds, including "Christmas", have been abbreviated in English for at least the past 1,000 years, long before the modern "Xmas" was commonly used.

Christ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The use of "Χ," derived from Chi, the Greek alphabet initial, as an abbreviation for Christ (most commonly in the abbreviation "Χmas") is often misinterpreted as a modern secularization of the term.

If you don't know basics of your religion...
Well, what can I say.
