LOL And God commanded it as a feast day when?

The idea that we should only celebrate the Old Testament Feasts is not Biblical. In fact the Bible says not too judge anyone on account of what days they celebrate.

Romans 14:5-6 (NIV2011)
5 One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.
6 Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.

Same place he commanded the Feast of the Dedication. You know, the one which is not in the Bible (even the events it commemorates are not in your Bible, though they are in mine), and which Jesus observed anyway.

Hard to believe but truly there are a few fringe types claiming to be "christian" who denigrate celebrating Christmas at all! Here is an example.

Good grief! I guess you don’t celebrate the birthdays of your loved ones, either. Can’t someone do something out of LOVE without you people complaining about “God commanding feast days?”
