I just wanted to note that Halloween is not, in fact, a celebration of Satan's birthday. It is an ancient Pagan holiday originally celebrated by the Celts in Ireland. "In the seventh century, Pope Boniface IV designated November 1 All Saints' Day, a time to honor saints and martyrs. It is widely believed today that the pope was attempting to replace the Celtic festival of the dead with a related, but church-sanctioned holiday. The celebration was also called All-hallows or All-hallowmas (from Middle English Alholowmesse meaning All Saints' Day) and the night before it, the night of Samhain, began to be called All-hallows Eve and, eventually, Halloween. Even later, in A.D. 1000, the church would make November 2 All Souls' Day, a day to honor the dead. It was celebrated similarly to Samhain, with big bonfires, parades, and dressing up in costumes as saints, angels, and devils. Together, the three celebrations, the eve of All Saints', All Saints', and All Souls', were called Hallowmas." (taken from http://www.history.com/content/hallo...y-of-halloween)

Says the person who thinks the Bible doesn't say homosexuality is a sin.

You might read it that sodomy is a sin, but it never says that homosexuality is a sin in itself.

It mentions the effeminate and sodomites.

Both Matthew 18 and Mark 9 describe sins of thought. Thanks for playing.

Do you shave? Men have beards. Big, full, hearty beards.

I do shave. If I was going to have a beard, I wouldn't be allowed to cut the edges of it, so I choose not to wear one.

According to tradition, men who shave are rather effeminate

Quick question. I thought Satan was created by God then he fell from grace and was then punished along with the other rebels by being sent to hell? Does he really have a birthday?

Think harder next time, retard.

Jesus has super powers. He could've read into the future and told us about Satan before he actually came.

Well, said, Reverend! Also, if Satan wasn't born until the 1100's then how could he have created all of those myths that pre-date Jesus?

A FEW examples:

Attis, of Phyrigia, born of the virgin Nana on December 25th, crucified, placed in a tomb and after 3 days, was resurrected.

Krishna, of India, born of the virgin Devaki with a star in the east signaling his coming, performed miracles with his disciples, and upon his death was resurrected

Dionysus of Greece, born of a virgin on December 25th, was a traveling teacher who performed miracles such as turning water into wine

Mithra, of Persia, born of a virgin on December 25th, he had 12 disciples and performed miracles, and upon his death was buried for 3 days and thus

These, and there are MANY MORE of them, were all fairytales that ahd been around for a long time before Jesus ever showed up.

Notice how similar they are to the facts of Jesus's life? Everyone knows that this is because Satan created these myths in an attempt to fool us into thinking that Jesus was just another wanna-be in a series of myths that are so strikingly similar that they all seem to be the same myth just re-invented every hundred years or so. If Satan didn't plant these false myths to try and trick us into ignoring Jesus as "just another loony amongst all the loony noise" then who did?

Ergo, Satan could not have been 'born' in the 1100's. Check and mate.
