Why Is The "Christmas Spirit" So Different?

The intention to NOT WORSHIP ANYTHING is why 1 Cor 10 says to not do anything in a pagan temple because temple activity is for nothing but worship. There's no condoning false gods at all when we are saying THEY DO NOT EXIST and any activity done in identical manners that are used to honour such non-entities is just activity. If the heart is not honouring a false god, then whatever activity is involved is simply activity as much as eating meat offered to idols is JUST EATING MEAT.

Why can't you see that?

Speaking of twisting, you have not yet represented our view correctly without twisting it and proposing things we are not saying at all. We understand your reasoning, but why can you not understand ours?

What about when it says to not eat meats offered to idols. I posted that a while back but no one answered that one.

If meats offered to a nonexisted false god then why not eat if not in heart to worship false god.
