Gonna catch some **** for this but --

Can someone show where in the Bible where it says we are to celebrate Christmas annually as a lasting ordnance?

Or Easter while we're at it?

I completely agree that it is not commanded anywhere, and in fact Christmas originates as something the Catholics thought up to compete with the Pagans. Knowing all that, I still enjoy Christmas as a time when lots of people who don't normally do, think of the birth of Jesus, and a chance to have great family times together....Merry Christmas!!

Not sure what your point is. However, Congress passed a law making Christmas a national holiday; not sure if that means anything to you.

Can someone show me where God forbids the celebration of His Son's birth, death, burial, resurrection, and ascension into Heaven or where we cannot worship him or practice our faith on government property, or to have a government based on Judeo/Christian Ethics?
