@tHe CrUsHeR,
> it is not evil to celebrate Jesus birth day.
Agreed.
> no but the birth of a sun god is and that's the day they declared it
> Christmas the new birth the birth of Christ..
It doesn't matter what was celebrated on that day. If you choose to
celebrate the birth of Christ on that day, it doesn't mean you are
celebrating the birth of a sun god.
> you are christian oh sorry catholic ..
Catholicism is Christian.
> so you should not believe in the Hanukkah..or Hindu or Diwali
I did not talk about believing in anything. I talked about lighting
candles to celebrate hope.
> who cares if that they light candles so do satanists/witches/ and
> other sects ..
I care. I like the fact that people of many faiths and of no faith at
all see the symbolism of light in the darkness.
> your faith should let you know what really matters here ..
I'm well aware of what really matters, thank you.
> ill put it simple what are the 10 commandments ......
What's your point?
> my grandmother was orthodox and my mother
OK
> i can not kiss a picture of men like saints
Who's asking you to?
> i can not stand before a carved image
Not even a cigar store Indian?
> i can not kiss the hand of a man playing a saint for a day
I don't care for hand-kissing either. "Playing saint for a day" is
just your judgement.
> then ask people in the Church for money
Sorry, man, but every church is going to ask for money.
> i just cant do it George
No one's asking you to.
> i can see i am not a blind man
OK
> it is dread full when i have walked in the orthodox Church all that
> runs through my mind carved images /fake images of Jesus /men somebody
> painted who are meant to resemble saints /angels from heaven
Never cared for most liturgical art, either. That doesn't mean I
think it's evil, just ugly. "Fake images of Jesus"? As opposed to
photos?
> then i think to my self gods word said not to do this it is wrong
As I recall, worship of images is forbidden. I don't worship pictures.
> and the catholic Church is the same
Huh?
> but they have a real man as there godly mascot
Ha! I like that!
> there saint
Not officially. He'll have to die first. It's a rule.
> i remember the pope sitting on a car waving to people in a bullet
> proof glass box he must have a lot of faith in god i even think he had
> guards walking with the car i bet he thought god is not going to
> protect me lol
"lol" is right. What are you on about?
> he has got a lot of faith excellent must be a good man ..
Next time I see him I'll tell him you said so.
> only god can judge
Anyone can judge. That's part of being human.
> judgement day boys we will see the truth
I can wait if you can.
> faith the size of a mustard seed your brother crushed
Huh?
Have nice day, Mr. C!
Your friend,
George
