Christmas Traditions and Biblical Contradictions with Reality
#11
RE: Christmas Traditions and Biblical Contradictions with Reality
BTW, more proof the current era christers aren't doing it right:

From Genesis:

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
(emphasis mine)

Note it does NOT say there was morning and there was evening, --the first day.  God has ordained how they are to measure the days of their lives, particularly galling, ain't it then in their pegging Sabbaths and religious holidays to the clock incorrectly, and I'm not seeing much religious froth, fervor or lather to straighten things out.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Why?  They are as big a bunch of fucking liars as you are.  At least they get paid for it.

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Can someone please tell me why I should give a rat's char-broiled bum about any of this? How does Christmas traditions not having Biblical authority matter even a little bit?

Because nothing is more fun that to point out to a bunch of pious Christians that they're acting like pagans and watch their eyes go red.

I wish there was a way that the CBOT could be dealing in damnation futures. Shit, I could be making some fucking money on that.

To be honest Christmas Vaca is my fav too. Love the sled scene and the road rage bit with the semi truck..

In short I agree there was no wise men at the birth of Christ, I just get there a little more directly than your historians do.
