Antipas, it looks to me that you still are angry from yesterday? I was led to believe that this xmas was to be about joy, peace on earth? Good will towards men? You know drag out the old holy pine, and prop it up and place the star of Chiun (Remphan) on its pointed top. Sit before it, by the fire place as the yule log burns. Cristes Maesse (OE), is the liturgy, the mass is a Eastern and Western Church sacrament. The apostles never recorded any Christian festival, other than the Passover that was being kept by Jewish Christians and their Gentile counterparts. Therefore we have no such edict in the scripture to keep, commemorate, observe, or celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, or His baptism by John (Epiphany Eastern Church) or the vist of the Magi (Epiphany Western Church). Every year I have this discussion on the forum. I have noticed over the years that the same individuals who attack, mock and fight standards of separation, totally contradict themselves when it comes to their own pet tradition. Leaving me with the thoughts that, it's not about what thus sayeth the Lord. It's all about American Apple Pie Christian Culture.

Come on Antipas, you don't really mean the above. If you were offended by me, I'm sorry. If you were offended by the truth, then deal with it.


In Jesus name
