in a business setting because it is much easier and quicker than saying Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas Eve, Happy New Year, Happy New Year's Eve, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Festivus, Happy Boxing Day, Happy Winter Solstice, Happy St. Nicholas' Day, Happy Boxing Day, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Bonza Bottler Day, Happy St. Lucy Day, Happy Maritime Day, Happy Ice Cream and Violins Day, etc........

I have. "Merry Christmas" they yelled.
Got me right in the heart.
Now I can’t even spell ‘humbuck’.

Just was thinking...if everything Before Christ (B.C.) in the Roman/western calendar.. is before birth... and everything on the switch-side is A.D. (After Death)... then WHAT HAPPENED to the other 33 years, in between? And moreover, what happened to that first week in-between Dec. 25th and ultimately the 1st day of Jan. 1st -- just kidding, I know the Church set the Xmas date for celebration just 100s of years ago...

I've been chatting with Riegan (who I love dearly) outside of R&S, and a week ago I asked about her rituals for the Solstice mentioning that I'd LOVE to try it at home with my family. She answered with "But you're an atheist! Are you really going to do it?"

Can I celebrate the Solstice even though I'm an atheist? If I, for example, showed up at some of the Pagans' celebrations - would they accept me or ask me to leave?

Then should it be illegal for a man and a women to live together before they are married? Should it be illegal to have a child out of wedlock? Whats the difference? Both of these things are clearly "sins" according to Christians.

Why can't it be an action without the Gospel? Don't actions speaks louder than words?

You were moving out in less than 3 days and your psycho roommate (who never lifts a finger to clean) started screaming at you to clean before you leave?

I have been through so much crap with this guy (not my boyfriend, just a roommate) and I clean the house every week and he never cleaned anything, left his messes for me and he has the audacity to yell at me like I am his slave. I am going to leave the house how he left it and clean my area, of course.

What would you do?????

commanded to come out?

In Matthew 24:15, 16 we read, "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:"

**The abomination of desolation is satan. The "holy place" is where God was at one time...ex. the Tabernacle, Solomon's Temple, the church... God departed from all these because the people went after other gods.
Judaea, Jerusalem, Temple, Judah, are all metaphors for the local church.
"Mountains" is a metaphor for the Lord...ex...."1I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth." (Psalms 121:1, 2).

In addition we read in 2 Thessalonians 2 we read, "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

I think that the term Christian is used to openly now days. People call themselves Christians for going to church or being baptized. I think the only way a person should be called a Christian is if they truly accepted Jesus Christ for remission for their sins. What is your opinion?
