Re: We've officially had the worst shooting in US history

lol I've never seen a Christian use "Xian"

(not that I find it super offensive - a little annoying, but not the end of the world. but I've definitely only seen it used by non-Christians. not saying you are wrong but I'm surprised to see that claim.)

No offence taken, I'm just geeky about (amongst other things) language and am very protective of neglected and abused apostrophes. *g*

Here are a few links, purely for the hell of it, tho the first one may be of use to any budding genealogists reading this:

www(.)genealogy-specialists.com/threads/when-is-an-x-not-an-x.4901/
wikipedia(.)org/wiki/Christogram
wikipedia(.)org/wiki/Xian_(abbreviation) (in the Oxford English Dictionary!)
and the diary mentioned in the above link, where the X=Christ abbreviation was used regularly, was written by this clergyman, who was the son of a clergyman:-
geni(.)com/people/Samuel-Rogers/6000000006444287566

Links were mutilated cos I wasn't not sure if dw would eat them if I didn't.

And yes, I'm aware none of these are partic modern usages, but they're still valid usages.

*backs slowly away from google*

Huh, I guess that's why I've never heard it from a Christian, but I guess it does have historical roots. Thanks! (the more you know)
