And no verse where God prohibited it.

Celebrating birthdays is not against Gods will. You’ve been asked point blank to produce a verse prohibiting it. All you got is Poisoning The Well. If a bad guy brushed his teeth, it does not make brushing teeth inherently evil. If teeth brushing began as a Pagan ritual, it does not make it...

Demon. Not Pagan. 1 Corinthians 10:21 New Living Translation 21 You cannot drink from the cup of the Lord and from the cup of demons, too. You cannot eat at the Lord’s Table and at the table of demons, too. This has to be reconciled with 1 Corinthians 9:19-23, be all things to all people so...

Demons. Not Pagans. 1 Corinthians 10:21 New Living Translation 21 You cannot drink from the cup of the Lord and from the cup of demons, too. You cannot eat at the Lord’s Table and at the table of demons, too.

Good point.

It doesn’t seem nearly like a hill worth dying on. I’m going to celebrate at the slightest provocation. I see it as part of living joyfully. Praise God 365. Praise God during pagan and secular, festivals and celebrations. It may be the pathway that brings others closer to Christ.

Not exactly a ringing prohibition. Seems to me the opposition to celebrating birthdays goes against life. All glory to God yes. Celebrate people’s lives who are important to you. In 2 months I’m expecting my 18th grandchild to join our family. We plan to give glory to God AND celebrate her...

POU - Philosophy of Use. Is it better to Paganize Christian celebrations or Christianize Pagan celebrations?

I pray to God that his spirit comes to you that transcends all understanding. Sounds like a lot of pressure. From what I’ve read, you have expectations of others that they are failing to meet. My advice is to focus on your walk and lets those called by God come to you. You may be in a...

On the bottom of every post is a ‘Reply’ button.

Good point.

This is Mothers Day weekend. It is to honor mothers, not pagan gods. Still, it is not worship.

@Eliyahu613, how about it?

Roman proverb. Victory has 1000 fathers. Defeat is an orphan. I’m pretty liberal when it comes to cars for celebration. Celebrating is not the same as worship.

Hmmm. https://www.gotquestions.org/witch-of-endor.html https://www.ucg.org/bible-study-tools/bible-questions-and-answers/did-the-ghost-of-samuel-appear-to-saul-after-his-death 1 Samuel 28:12 Contemporary English Version 12 When the woman saw Samuel, she screamed. The fact that she...

It sure does. I’ve learned that the truth is simple. His ‘answer’ to this simple question was not. A reincarnationist, he cannot accept Samuel came back from the dead in the form of his one and only carnation. So, he invents this elaborate ruse, attempting to confuse the issue with us...

I think that is a point our new Jewish friend in here is going against.

Wow! Other worldly. I only had 4 hours in my schedule. My estimate is that I saw only 25% of what the resort had to offer. Knowing that, I took a lot of pictures to read what was written on the walls. At 3 PM, the founder of the Ark Encounter gave a talk. Sadly I had to leave at that time...

I don't normally write such long posts. Fortunately, I had some time this morning before I travel again for a week. So, it may be some time before I can reply in depth to your thoughtful posts. No. You did NOT answer! "So what" is not an answer. This "answer" is an Appeal to Diversion as...

Huh? What in the world does mass extinctions have to do with my pivoting on your reply of not needing any evidence at all but only 6 steps in reasoning? These exchanges show the double standards of not only evidence but even what is on the table for discussion. I read a great book Atheism on...
