    I’m sure that’s his intention, but he is so young and they are so old. when I met with the search committee, they told me they were looking for a more mature guy... God only knows how this is going to work out. Still, it’s not my problem though.

    Yea but when a Catholic says it, it’s like he is telling you that he is the superior, or more appropriately the Real thing and you are an inappropriate hoax. Having been raised by them, I know very well how they think, there is only one true church and it’s theirs.

    I do not recognize Christmas as a holy day. There are 52 holy days per year in which we are commanded to worship. That said, Christmas is fun. I see no problem with meditating on the birth of Christ. As for me and my family? We will celebrate with gift giving and the rest of the merriments, but we have no intention of having the day interfere with the Lord's day.

    Where is the scripture that says we are to worship 52 days a year? Which calendar do we use? The Book of Acts has the believers meeting daily. See Ch. 2.

    What if Jesus arose on The Sabbath, the seventh day of the week as we know it? There is a three days and nights problem if Jesus died in the P.M. on Friday. Somebody has an uncalibrated chronometer--the traditions of men.

    Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

    One man esteemeth one day above others, another man esteemeth all days alike.

    And the doors of the inn weren't shut. There was no room.

    What innkeepers?
