Ban that plagarist jew rat

Holly was the sacred plant of Saturn. Saturnalia Festival was celebrated from December 17th to the 23rd and commemorated the dedication of the Temple of Saturn.

The Roman Saturnalia, an ancient festival celebrated on December 17-24 that consisted of wild merrymaking and people enjoying themselves to the fullest.

This ancient Roman holiday honors Saturn, the god of seed-sowing, and celebrates the promise of a spring harvest.

Yule is not a fertility god. This meme is retarded. Pagans are retarded.

Nigger, the Bible specifically says to NOT do the things your talking about, but you're gonna make those things a part of Christianity?

The Bible does not recognize the birth of Christ as being in December or tell Christians to celebrate the birth of Christ. The Bible tells Christians to NOT decorate a Yule log, to NOT put gold and silver on trees, do NOT water down the faith by bending it to paganism, but here you are suggesting Christianity is just rehashing pagan ways.

Are you being sarcastic? Christians should not be taking part in foolish customs, yet many claim to be Christian while doing exactly that.

There is no bar for most Christians to celebrate secular holidays. Christmas is a secular holiday to celebrate the savior of man kind.

Christmas is a secular holiday that is celebrated for many purposes. My neighbors do not think about Jesus on Christmas at all. Just because Christians justify celebrating it does not make it righteous behavior.

Not sure who had suggested that Christmas was a "righteous behavior", but OP most certainly suggested that Christianity is nothing but a spin-off of paganism. And he does it all the time despite the facts.

Okay, I see where my misunderstanding is. I read the meme as specifically about Christmas. Your read it as a condemnation of Christianity in general. I think we are in agreement. OP sucks and celebrating holidays like Christmas is not taught in the Bible.

The Bible does not recognize the birth of Christ as being in December or tell Christians to celebrate the birth of Christ.

The only thing Jesus told his disciples to do for remembrance is to celebrate the "Lord's supper" when two or more assemble, and that was to remember the sacrifice he made of his blood and body. That's it. There's no reason to celebrate his birth on earth unless one wants to.

The Bible tells Christians to NOT decorate a Yule log, to NOT put gold and silver on trees, do NOT water down the faith by bending it to paganism, but here you are suggesting Christianity is just rehashing pagan ways.

That's not true. It doesn't say either to do it or not to do it. These are pagan observances, but their original symbolic intent has been forgotten, and they've been repurposed as tangential folk celebrations. Some of it has to do with the very real enjoyment some people have of celebrating the winter solstice on the shortest day of the year. Some of it has to do with family and friends gathering at the beginning of winter.

I agree with you, though, that as long as these things don't water down the faith, making it about "season's greeting" (a jew phrase, used to avoid mentioning Christmas or Jesus) or nonsense like Santa Claus, reindeer, pretty trees, and the like instead of in remembrance of Jesus's birth, it seems harmless.

No. It absolutely says do not do those things.

Jeremiah 10:2-5
Thus says the LORD:
“ Do not learn the way of the Gentiles;
Do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven,
For the Gentiles are dismayed at them.
For the customs of the peoples are futile;
For one cuts a tree from the forest,
The work of the hands of the workman, with the ax.
They decorate it with silver and gold;
They fasten it with nails and hammers
So that it will not topple.
They are upright, like a palm tree,
And they cannot speak;
They must be carried,
Because they cannot go by themselves.
Do not be afraid of them,
For they cannot do evil,
Nor can they do any good.”

And, there are others.

But yes, do it as a secular celebration. Most Christians have no issue with that. Even holloween or easter.

That jewish book of scripture is for jews only. Did you even read what you quoted? "Do not learn the way of the gentiles". I'm assuming you're a gentile, but you're quoting something that says NOT to learn the ways of the gentiles. You seem to have cognitive dissonance when it comes to reconciling your Christian faith with your bible that has mostly Hebrew scripture in it.

The Hebrew scriptures are for jews only. They don't apply to Christians.

Yeah nigger, don't get naked, dance around a fire, and fuck your apprentice in the ass.

I have no fucking idea what you're talking about, and apparently neither do you. That's okay, go back to reading your jew book and following everything the jew tells you to do. About 2/3 of that book was written for jews in a language used by jews. You're not a jew, so I don't know why you think you need to pay attention to the jews' book.

Yet here we are…

"Forgive them for they do not know."

When the Bible says "don't do it", no amount of "Christians" doing it, makes it Christian.

You completely miss the fucking point.

A Christmas tree is a wooden idol.

They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

This is exactly what is done to a Christmas tree. There certainly is no biblical relation to Christ or his birth to any such tree or actions.

And, what makes it objectionable is that when you start doing these things, people go overboard, and the message gets lost. Look at the excesses with regard to Christmas lights, Christmas trees, the gifts under the trees, Christmas dinner, the expectations, the disappointments, etc.

In this very specific case, "keeping up with the Jones'" isn't about who is celebrating Christ more, it's about who decorates their house better, who decorates their tree(s) better, who gets the best or most gifts. The largesse of Christmas dinner. Christmas for most people isn't even a consideration of Christianity or the faith. At best they go to church for a few hours in between opening presents, eating dinner, watching nigger ball, partying, etc.

You are a hypocrite, as if you dont have a christmas tree up.

Your entire religion is stolen from pagan traditions and subverted for ill gains.

Cultural theft then smeared with jewish shit.

I do not have a Christtmas tree. I did not buy presents. No lights on our house. We will have dinner with my inlaws, and I will cook a couple of dishes for that dinner, but that's it for my Christmas celebration.

No. Christianity has nothing to do with pagans, and there was a time, when you'd be killed for trying to push paganism onto a Christian.

Christianity is proven to have adopted White pagan cultural customs to make the sand religion more palatable, slowly eroding, reshaping and adjusting for a more streamlined jewish mythological narrative.

Also most Christians do have a Christmas tree, wreaths and other original pagan iconographic concepts during the Christ-mass and the ‘not birthday’ of jesus.

No, nigger, it has not. The Bible makes it very clear that Christians are to NOT do those things. Additionally, the Bible says that the Apostate church will attempt to water down the faith by doing those things and that we should resist the church doing those things.

The blending of paganism into Christianity to make heathens feel better about being filthy animals is prophesy and a warning. Usually part of a jew led subversive effort to destroy Christianity.

Persecution and victim complex.
