Water Baptism......Pagan Origin (John the Baptist wasn't the 1st baptizer!)
Baby Dedications.....Pagan Origins
Marriage Ceremonies..... again, Paganism
Funeral services (Blessing the Dead)
The point is... there are a great number of things we do, and promote that, if we really looked into their origins, we'd find Paganism written all over it. Those little figurines around your house... PAGAN images.
Easter....Christmas.... and just about every religious holiday you can name...
PAGAN
But God "searches and trys the reigns (intents) of the heart". The REASON we celebrate Easter and have church steeples is far removed from their origins. It would seem to me that when we "Christianize" worldly or pagan practices, we are triumphing over the pagan practices for which they were used in the past. Like taking a country music song and putting Christain lyrics to it. In other words...this whole discussion about PAGANISM is "much ado about nothing!" |

Good points OA.
I think E.B. may be having some fun here. And as unbiblical as having fun online really is, I still hope he has a blast.

If I could get my hands on one of these, I'd print out the picture and stick it on! Maybe add a caption like "Fisher Price: Reckarts Fun House! Part XIII". The debate would be whether wasting a collectors item like this would be worth the imagined shock of him seeing this........ Quite possibly!
