Modern medicine is full of Paganism. Their symbols and proceedures at times set real healing back. The schools of Socrates, Aristotle, others stripped cadavers and practiced on voluteers with potions and dark proceedures requireing mytical systems.
You can still find some of their symbolism in modern medicine.

It's pagan to chew gum in a church parking lot ,especially when one spits it out and folks step on it.

I am not trying to stir the waters so much, but I can never understand how UPC can go along with Christmas being acceptable. When I attended UPC churches, I just didn't give to all of that "Christ for Christmas" giving or whatever it's called.

What does it matter what it's called for pete's sake?! It's the 'cause' that's important.

I have very little patience with the fringe nutters. I need to just ignore them since, thank heavens, they are very small in number.
I mean we have one person who is going to move from one state to another just to find a church that doesnt celebrate holidays and then this woman who boycotted Sheaves For Christ over her nonsense. Arghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
