Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

And by that all-encompassing logic, then you should be eating poisonous mushrooms since "For by him were all things created..."

You may want to start focusing the Scriptures you're quoting a little more directly on the topic at hand.

They're not Jewish holidays. They're God's holy days:

Lev 23:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.

God specifically spells out that these are HIS feasts. They belong to no man, but are God's days. As men, we have a choice: observe them or not.

Since they are God's days, it's obvious that they were created for a specific purpose. That purpose is to help his children learn about God the father and our savior Jesus Christ.
