He basically has a good point. Namely that some [please note the word some] Apostolic churches will preach to death about the evil of facial hair, going to a rodeo, or watching a dvd. Then go out and "celebrate" a pagan tradition that God hates in the name of evangelism.

Not saying you do that, but some do.

I understand, I just don't see it as celebrating an egg or a bunny, we choose to celebrate life and the joy it brings, that's all.

Things like this really bother some and doesn't bother others. Not trying to be offensive to anyone. The question was asked and I answered it.

Bit of a shocker to me too...

Not to be mean, but that is reading a little too much into things, IMHO!

What part is "reading a little much into things"?

I don't think there should be Easter egg hunts in the church on Easter, nor do I think there should be Christmas trees in the church at Christmas.

Blessings, Rhoni
