I never said anything about burning incense to Christ. In fact, I have emphasized all along the concept of simply giving gifts to each other beneath a decorated tree. No worship to God involved. The more correct comparison you should make is that if a former buddhist liked the smell of the incense, and simply burned it for the sake of the aroma, without any reference to Christ at all.

Most truely converted pagan person would hold unto their idolatrous ways. Something about abstain from idols would mean something to them.

Only because of a weak conscience.

19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
What would such like mean? I have no doubts a true converted pagan would not want anything to do with "such like" their past pagan customs.

If they had a weak conscience, sure.
