What Is Wrong In Celebrating Birthdays, Christmas Etc. To The JW. by Ukutsgp(m): 6:04pm On Nov 07, 2013
I dont see anything wrong in celebrating birthdays, christmas and others. But the jehovah witness are against it. They always preach against it. They say the celebration attract all kinds of voilence and that it is a pagan practice which christian should not partake in. They should stop preaching against the celebration of christmas and birthdays cos there is nothing unscriptural in that. If there is, they should prove it now or never.

They say it is not written in the Bible so you should agree with them.

Afterall that is what you always attack we Catholics for. "Where is Pope, mass, trinity written in the Bible."

Now JWs are asking you where is Christmas, birthday written in the Bible and you are complaining...because you want to eat rice and chicken. Tiff! *kidding*

Show them where it is written in the Bible or you would be a big hypocrite.

I dont know where Christmas was celebrated in the Bible o.

It was introduced by the Catholic Church. We converted a pagan celebration on Dec 25 to celebrate the birth of our Lord.

The word "christmas" and the celebration is a Catholic invention. So if you are against the Catholic practises that are not expkicitly found in the Bible, you should join the JWs and avoid Christmas celebration.

When we were warning you that fighting against Catholicism is fighting against Christianity, you thought we were joking.

If you dishonour your mother, your days wont be long.

You didn't have to go that far, brother.

Didn't you see that I was only kidding? I wrote it there.

It doesn't matter if you can afford chicken everyday or you can barely afford a meal a day.

I'd still respect you equally.

Mind u, i dnt disobey any mother rather u are d one disobeying God and u will pay dearly for it if u dnt repent now.

For Christmas.
Jeremiah 10 vs 1-6
1"Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
2Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them."
3"For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not."
5"They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good. 6Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might."

Dude, if you dont know, Its obvious that you want to ignore what italo is trying to say. You want to run in a circle of arguement that will lead nowhere.

the actual date jesus was born was not that clear but it was about that period of time, so all christians unanimously choose that day to celebrate the birth of jesus all over the world. Anything wrong in that?

When, where and why did they make this "unanimous decision" to celebrate what the Catholic Church (which they call pagans) instituted in place of a pagan celebration?

Why are they copying/following us yet dishonouring and maligning us?

Lies! It was the Catholic Church that chose, not Lazarus Muoka, not anyone else.
