Upside down Christmas tree....Why? | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 78200818  United States11/27/2019 04:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The use of pine trees is an old pagan tradition. It has nothing to do with the birth of Jesus. So whatever your intentions for it are is up to you. Most people just like them. Kids really like them. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 55611245 I like the smell of a real living evergreen tree in the dead of winter in a stuffy house and i strongly suspect this is where the custom originated.They filter the air, give off oxygen, and smell really nice. . I dont like the hassle of putting them up, however  |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78200818 Festivals around the winter solstice are as old as history itself, and not inherently "evil" in any way. It was a celebration of the lengthening of the day and the promise of the return of spring, just as Easter is fertility festival celebrating rebirth in springtime around the vernal equinox . the symbols can mean whatever you want them to mean and the meaning of the holiday is whatever you make it out to be in your own mind. There is nothing "wrong" with having fun or celebrating things that people were dependent on for survival. LOL, YVHV says NOT to learn the ways of the pagans, and God repeatedly tells us to come out of babylon. I will listen the Creator and His Instruction instead of your feel good wide path BS! your "creator" is a psychotic murderer of humanity and the origin of evil So you hate the God of the Bible/Scriptures/TaNaKh? We all make choices, and we will ALL live with the repercussions of those choices. |

Re-Instate Smith-Mundt!  User ID: 77961993 United States11/27/2019 04:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What Im more shocked at is the price tag. Who in their right mind is gonna pay almost 300 dollars for a fake tree? (Sure it lasts forever..) Quoting: Archaic Smile Don't forget the 30 bucks for the vinyl bag to store it in.

Its SATAN CLAWS who has his material claws hooking people. If usually get the stupid lecture about St. Nickolas. yes, Santa is an anagram for Satan and i don't think it is an accident. I believe the j ws who commercialized Christmas and called it "X-Mass" in their Christmas catalogues intended it that way since THEY worship Satan, they pervert every good thing. The original St. Nickolas was a benign figure who gifted obedient children with small gifts at Christmas , nothing inherently evil about it... |

Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 77961993 United States11/27/2019 04:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Goes back to pre-Christian Vikings hanging pine trees from the ceiling in their long houses during winter because it made the stench a little more bearable. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77999315 One would logically think that it would smell stronger during the warmer days of summer.

In all seriousness, I am curious. The answer lies in trying to explain the genesis of the universe. the big bang theory is an example of the utter stupidity that is necessary, suddenly *nothing* decides to explode and arrange itself into the infinitely complex patterns of interactions we see around us, all by itself, with random abandon. It has always been, no end, no beginning, a concept humans can't deal with. the creator is the universe and the universe is the creator, and everything is part of it's intelligence,it is a sentient being with everything part of the whole....you are part of the creator and have the ability to create your own reality. check out the double slit experiment, it is a simple explaintion of the manifestation of this fact |
