Eating meats and pagan worship customs are not in the same boat.

That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

Since you guys want to compare christmas to meats would you stop celebrating it if I was part of your church if it offended me?


21It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
