Sister, do you celebrate the Epiphany? You don't, so you pick and choose what you do celebrate due to your culture. It has nothing to do with the Bible. If you were raised in India you would be a Hindu, and if you were raised in Arabia you would be a Muslim. It's about our surroundings and cultures, and we incorporate them into our system. You don't get a xmas celebration from the pages of a Bible, you get a xmas celebration from the Western and Eastern churches, through the Protestants to the Pentecostals.

It's interesting to see you no standards Brothers fight so hard over this issue.

In Jesus name
