True christians do not celebrate christmas or easter or any other pegan holliday. Those are pegan traditions not christian. Also true christians do not drink and do drugs and have promiscuous sex including sodomy. So why do these people call themselves christians?

You have challenged with rules that are true to some degree.
I celebrate Christmas and worship God in the progress are you saying I am wrong. I celebrate the death burial and Resurrection of a risen Savior at church is that a sin? You say christian should not drink. The Bible says avoid debauchery and be not drunk with wine. Where does it say do not drink? Please send me a Bible quote. I take medication for blood pressure you tell me I'm a pagan. What tenets do you follow. How do you reconcile Hermeneutics?

The only requirement of a Christian is that they believe the death of Christ was a sacrifice for their sins and in his resurrection we can find eternal life. There are no additional requirements. Paul even wrote in I Corinthians 8, that there is nothing inherently wrong with eating food sacrificed to idols, as long as it does not discourage other Christians. I do not think there is anything wrong with celebrating pagan holidays as long as you do not worship pagan gods.
