I was going to being this up. When I first got into church I read a book from Elder Burr, and he was big into Christmas. I’m not just talking about having family and friends over, I’m talking about trees, garland, mistletoe, wreaths etc.. basically just short of Santa Clause. Anyway, He wrote about the HYPOCRISY from his dear friends on the right that told him he is involving himself in pagan traditions by his celebration of the Christmas holiday. And being the man that he was, he wrote them back, if he was a pagan because of his Christmas celebration, then they are as well, for there participation of SUN god worship. Because they and 95% of church’s hold their church services on SUNday, which goes back to pagan worship of the SUN god. He rebuked his friends and mocked them, offering a new name for them to use, come join us for SUN day God School!

He went on: When can we have service that will not be MIXED with paganism;
Monday- Nope thats the moon gods day
Tuesday- Sorry! Mars the fearsome god of war claims it
Wednesday- Again sorry, That day belongs to woden.
Thursday- You superhero fans will love this. This has been dedicated to Thor
Friday- This is “Frig’s-Day” she is a pagan goddess
Saturday- the Sabbatarians arent going to like this either, this is saturns day.

As your in SUNday god school tomorrow you really need to make sure who you are worshipping?

I knew a man, wouldn’t celebrate any holiday, and he was real about it, it wasnt just Christmas. It was birthdays (oh yes!!! Say goodbye) Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Easter, you get the point. Yet, after a while he stopped going to church, why? All the church’s he knew where wrong and he couldn’t mixed himself with those “pagans”. So, to this day, its just him and his wife, his daughter and her husband have service in their home. They think there better than any fellowship they could be having with other believers. I call that PRIDE!

It’s pride and hypocrisy to say those that celebrate any holiday are wrong and endangering themselves to the flames of the pit, yet they’ll hoot and holler how they’re not afraid to take up arms and defend there land! They cringe at the thought of Christmas, yet they without hesitation state I will shoot another human being or in support of taking up arms against the government..... you’re going to tell me thats perfectly fine.

Where do we draw the line?
Birthdays, wasnt celebrated by the early church. This practice goes back to the Egyptians. Greeks took it from there and then it fell in to the lap of romans which made it the way we understand it. Go study it out.

How far to the right can one go without going overboard?

How far to the left can one go without going overboard?

I was brought up in the church, there is a ditch on both side of the road. Stay down the center.
