Something like that.

Think about what I've said so far and compare that to the money changers in the temple.
Toxic mammon, but someone wants to have a security fund!

I have no idea what that is supposed to mean. I'm not really into the "try and figure out my clever cryptic meaning" game on message boards.

Glorifying death and gruesome murder scenes is in no way a good thing for children. I provided alternative things for my kids to do with me that were way more exciting to them and told them why mom wouldn't allow them to participate in such things. Peace
Party pooper!

That is cool. I participated in it in Oaxaca, Mexico one year when we went to a cemetery and had tamales while sitting on a grave. The movie Under the Volcano has some great scenes in it.

For one thing, this was commanded to the Israelites only...

Second, there is a difference between dressing up and actually being one...I dress up as an aircraft mechanic every night that I go into work because we all know it is a sin to actually be one...

Third, you just quoted [Jewish] law, I thought your Jesus came and abolished the law...

You have no right to either.

Do not shout out and persecute Christian any day of the week

Wallowing in this wickedness you imagine on this particular day of the year shows who your father is

You will reap what you sow, which is your choice.
What in the world are you talking about?...

He did it before in the Old Testament.

The devil wants to keep his day identified as his day, but not in an honorable way like we honor Martin Luther King.
Satans minion's are working hard to get that accomplished by posting on message boards.
Problem is, all days were created and belong to, God.

,
Do you have any biblical proof of this?...
