how typical undecided

valentine's day is a day set aside to show love for people
tho there are varying sories surrounding which of the st. valentines' are being celebrated
but the most popular version is st. valebtine after being rejected by a woman sending his still beating heart to her as a sign of his undying love

that aside, its a day that tho set out to show romantic love, has been commercialised that the meaning is all but lost on the people of today

Sorry but I do not accept that explanation. It is known that many of the Holidays that people accept and blindly celebrate have pagan or satanist origins (i.e. "Christmas" w/ Sa[b]n[/b]ta / Sata n  Clause, etc). Val's Day does not even seem or feel right to me, and there is nothing in the Scriptures telling us to celebrate it.

Jah teaches us to Love always and unconditionally. Why do we designate one specific day for this purpose?

Doesn't seem right to me.

is from the catholic culture im guessing u arent why u havent heard of it

ps: im not either

moreso i dont entirely believe in it either but if we are to show love evry day, why not have an official love day when u can show the greatest most ridiculous concept of love? tongue
sounds like fun to me man grin

OK but why do we call it Valentine's Day?? Catholics are known idolers, so if the origin is within their church, we can bet that the Day was really designed to worship the so-called "Saint".

Besides, is it supposed to be a day for Love or for Lust? Most people I know are only concerned with the Lust aspect.

But anyhoo, if you want to celebrate Love Day, I am all for that. I just won't be mislead or bamboozled by wickedness.

LOL (Lots of Love)

Guess you'd say that I should lighten up, eh?
