This is Calvin. My favorite holidays for the year are Christmas and Thanksgiving. I am just curious about what are your favorite holidays? I am not asking irrelevant question b/c it is not Christmas nor Thanksgiving day yet.

Christmas is celebrated in U.S. But my question is how is Christmas celebrated differently in contrast with U.S. (any countries on Earth)?

How would you life be affected if we didn't have computers? Would it be harder or easy? Would we be smarter or work harder?

Read before you answer?
The following is a quote from the 2000 Encyclopædia Britannica, Volume 11 ; page 390.


"During the later periods of Roman history, sun worship gained in importance and ultimately led to what has been called a 'solar monotheism.' Nearly all the gods of the period were possessed of Solar qualities, and both Christ and Mithra acquired the traits of solar deities. The feast of Sol and Victus (open unconquered Sun) on December 25th was celebrated with great joy, and eventually this date was taken over by the Christians as Christmas, the birthday of Christ." Notice how it says "both Christ and Mithra acquired the traits of solar deities"? The Christians were apparently trying to get more converts so they tried to "paganize" the Messiah to make Him more attractive to pagans. They even officially brought the feast of the unconquered sun into their worship in 336 AD. This is the origin of Christmas.But the real question is, "Who converted who?"

If Christians really make their own decision to become Christians, they would learn about Christianity BEFORE becoming Christians. Most Christians start learning about Christianity AFTER they've already considered themselves Christians.

God has spoken to the human race in every age from the distant past to this very day. Because we are created in His image, we possess a moral conscience that speaks to us of right or wrong. All the reasoning of unbelief does not alter two positive bibical truths: man possesses an inner moral sense which comes from God : man's consciousness of right and wrong tells us something about God and His will.
God also provides revelation through the testimony of history or experiences of individuals and nations. When individuals and nations throw off moral restraint, they become miserable and weak ; Observation indicates that loose living creates unhappiness and premature death among men and women ; History reveals that nations which lost their moral fiber deteriorated to second rate power.
Nature testifies to God's existance, wisdom, and power. Any open minded person who observes the created world, therefore, cannot help but feel that behind it all is a power that is vastly superior to him

My paternal grandfather had an older brother who died just after being born. My father had an older brother, a twin, that died just after birth; My oldest brother was killed at 23; My other brother had a baby, but his girlfriend had an abortion, and my ex-wife had an abortion against my wishes. I had a dream that this baby was my son, and each time I go to church, I light a candle for my son's soul. I have heard something about a curse that is on some Irish families, taking the first-born as punishment fr our ancestors worshipping the pagan God Crom Cruach, but is there such a curse anywhere in Irish folklore?

If a person acts guilty after the fact, regardless of what they did, should or do you still forgive if they don't admit to it? I've had people say and do different things to me, but they would come back and act guilty and remorseful, but just won't say I'm sorry. Does that count as asking forgiveness or do they actually have to confess in some way verbally? What's your opinion?
