Okay, I admit it. I was just trying to put this thread up, so my own would make sense. I'll delete my own society in a while, I think. It might not be too popular.

Its a fair enough society (atheist)

But are Christian people allowed to question it?

Calling all Christians!

OK, so that's an alarming way to begin...

Anyway, the point is: Anyone that considers themself a Christian of any kind, or just anyone interested (see the Honorary non-Jewish members of J-Soc) is welcome to join; as an abbreviation I propose 'X-Soc'.

Gemma from J-Soc says hi and wishes you good luck with this society.

I wanna join.

fair enough I have the whole feeling that people call Christmas xmas now to take out the Christ. Thus putting presents top, and dont get me started on Easter,

someone asked me what day it was on this year :confused:

I would love to join but I am offended by the 'X-Soc' even though it has the Greek 'chi' relevence.

Why? If the abbreviation is an issue you can just write it out in full. I clearly wouldn't be intending to offend anyone - otherwise the name would have been "Christianity SUCKS Society". A rose by any other name would still be the same Society.

By the way I intended no allusion to Greek. It just seemed a more interesting abbreviation than C-Soc, and some people use Xtian as TSR-speak for Christian already.

Even I didn't know what date Easter was this year, and I'll be singing at church for every service in Holy Week! Although that's stupidity rather than religious apathy.

our christinaity teacher gave us this huge lecture abt how 'x' initially signified the devil and now it signifies Christ and how we're all gonna die if we say Xmas.
or something to that effect

Errr, just a guess but isn't it the x supposed to represent a cross. Like when you get a train to Charing Cross (London), they say "Charing X" on the front...
