Troll_Whisperer said: Why do religious people celebrate the Winter solstice (xmas)? Or why are they off on Sundays?
The meaning of things change. I know muslim people who celebrate Christmas coz it's sort of a national holiday now. I celebrate it too (well, I gather with my family) and I certainly ain't a Christian. No shame in that. Yeah, we also say "Oh, my God" in English, etc.
Pretty silly OP. |
Christmas is done in winter in an attempt to help the transition for nonChristians of the time.
Many Christian holidays have changed over the years to help people of other religions just like it was with Christmas.
I wonder if you complain on New Years that it isnt actually the "New year" or run around throwing it in peoples faces like it matters that a year is not exactly 365 days?
As for the Sabath I think that was made pretty clear in Genesis.Also many are not off on Sundays as they would be fired. Seems only certain religions are free to express their religous freedoms
