But religion has bended, making it a "celebration for all", as "Christians" now imitate the practice of Druids!

The sad thing is how bound up everyone is in superstition as if putting up a tree with lights can bring forth "joy" or "love" or "peace on earth" (superstition is the use of symbols with incantations to conjur), especially by millions who claim to believe in the Holy Bible, which notes in particular the Babylonian custom of decorating trees (Jeremiah 10) along with worship of the stars, as idolatry that provoked God's anger and that Israel should not imitate the custom. (Israel was in captivity because of idolatry already, for God is not partial). The Babylonian empire was short...

But religion has bended, making it a "celebration for all", as "Christians" now imitate the practice of Druids!

The sad thing is how bound up everyone is in superstition as if putting up a tree with lights can bring forth "joy" or "love" or "peace on earth" (superstition is the use of symbols with incantations to conjur), especially by millions who claim to believe in the Holy Bible, which notes in particular the Babylonian custom of decorating trees (Jeremiah 10) along with worship of the stars, as idolatry that provoked God's anger and that Israel should not imitate the custom. (Israel was in captivity because of idolatry already, for God is not partial). The Babylonian empire was shortly after his warning conquered by the Medo-Persians, as Daniel prophesied. Subsequently the Greeks conquered them, and then the Romans them, as Daniel wrote as well. When the Greek tyrant and homosexual pedophile Alexander the Great conquered Egypt he proclaimed he was liberating them from superstition, which he was, but only converting the Egyptians to that of the Greeks. After the Dark Ages of the Roman Catholic church Martin Luther and the Reformation defied the popes and showed they had corrupted real Christian faith into a gross superstition, that patterned paganism (which Thomas Paine also observed later)

Gross superstition is the mark of all tyrannical empires, all of which through history have been brought down. America is now deep in this superstition, it being federally established, and by every state capital. Is it a wonder that America has tyrannical Presidents, particularly since Lincoln, who make invasions under the guise of "liberation" and "emancipation", just as Alexander or Rome? America's empire, following the same pattern, and as Pat Buchanan is now warning, will also come to an end in like manner. God is not blessing America, like republicans in particular invoke, he is cursing it, particularly under George W. Bush, another anti-Christ president.

The publishing of facts need not be insulting, but it is often troubling. And some who accuse others make no hesitation to insult themselves, frequently on the internet.

Insult actually comes from pride which does not like to be humbled, a consequence often of telling the truth. But It should not be insulting to lay out the facts of how a practice came about, and mature people are able to deal with it. Some are unable to. The facts are plain in this case, and it is actually insulting human intellect to believe lighting of trees has any logical effect, power or purpose, or to attempt to deny it is superstitious foolishness.

The facts are plain in this case, and it is actually insulting human intellect to believe lighting of trees has any logical effect, power or purpose, or to attempt to deny it is superstitious foolishness. And it is blasphemy toward God and Christ to say it has anything to do with the incarnation of the Son of God.

What is insulting is that the majority can force this compulsive habit and Christmas tyranny on the minority, particularly when Christians used to resist it. Scrooge is really the merchandiser.

What is insulting is that the government dictates the holiday, contrary to the Constitution's 1st amendment, which enabled freedom of religion to prevent religious tyranny--i.e. the government establishing religious forms of worship officially, ESTABLISHING A PAGAN FORM OF WORSHIP WHILE PRETENDING IT'S CHRISTIAN IN NAME. That is insulting to God, it is blasphemy of Jesus Christ, it is insulting to historic Christian faith and beliefs.

It is an insult to God to think that people can worship him in whatever way they want that makes them happy, for then man is the author of worship, and defines God however he pleases. It is the height of arrogance to force everyone to tolerate an established ritual which the Bible condemns.

For "Christians" who think they are worshipping God with the use of lighted trees it should be plain from scripture that it is condemned under the 2nd commandment as idolatry and superstition. God forbids human innovation in his worship, or imitation of pagan customs. The "religious right" are wrong again.
