"I love this group! Where is Christ in Christmas now days?! All you see at the malls are Santa's and frosty. Where is the Nativity? yea hopefully everyone will know what's the true meaning of christmas."

Oh my gosh..."Christ" has absolutely nothing to do with December 25th...he was not even born in winter..Christmas originated from the Pagan's celebration of The Son of Isis...on...guess what day??

December 25th.

Then Christians came along and adapted their beliefs...and stole december 25th since it was already a well-respected/well-celebr

ated holiday...


Jude Brian says:

Well, thank you for that information, but I already know that. It's just like they don't know when Jesus actually died. Duh, it's been over 2000 years.

Why I'm disappointed is because people don't see Christmas as a religious holiday, they just think its a holiday of snows, exchanging gifts and christmas tress.


Brianne Simpson says:

ok...but why celebrate it as a christian holiday?

can't we just celebrate it as humans?...kindness, family, sharing, loving..the winter season...the warmth behind watching the little ones (whether your own...your little brother or sister...your little cousiin) get all excited and worked up...

what's wrong with that?


Jude Brian says

I didn't say it's wrong...

Picture this, You're going for a birthday party. You and your friends are getting all excited and worked up about it. You reached the birthday boy's house, celebrated it and went home. But when you reach home, you realise you don't know who's birthday it was.

Technically you just went for a birthday party, you didn't find out who's birthday it is.

Another example, New Year. Celebrating New Year but not realising it's going to be a new year at midnight.

I'm just try to spread the word that christmas is not only the time of giving, its the birth of Jesus Christ. Something which is far more important.
I'm not saying a non christian can't celebrate it. But just know what you are celebrating.

Anyways, Merry christmas!


Brianne Simpson says:

but it's NOT jesus's birthday...

That would be in late summer/early fall...

why would some kid celebrate his birthday 3 months AFTER his birthday???


Jude Brian says

Well, Christians and Roman Catholics around he world just marks and honors the birth of Jesus on the 25th of December!

And one more thing, nobody knows when Jesus is born. Gosh!


Brianne Simpson says

and they stole it from pagans...so why do christians have the right to complain about "their holiday" being turned into a "secular holiday"...

and most historians/experts on the matter agree it was late summer/early fall...


Jude Brian says

Firstly, historians have no hard proof. Different historians have different views on history. That's why they are called historians; His-Story...

Secondly, we didn't steal the holiday. I just said that it's a day that we mark on our calendars. Can't two occasion be celebrate on the same day? Pagans are a group of religious people, where els the catholic faith has a huge clergy.

Thirdly, we are not complaining about our holiday. We invite all people of all religions and walks of life to celebrate Christ's birth with us. Which was and till today is the birthday of jesus christ.


Brianne Simpson says

But not all people want to celebrate the birth of jesus...

Which, to me, seems perfectly fine...let them celebrate a secular christmas.

You were in the group "Keep CHRIST in Christmas"...which is where I got your quote from....but Christmas isn't about "christ" to a lot of people...why force it on them?

http://www.new-life.net/chrtms10.htm

pretty convincing...most "his-storians" are in agreement...of course there are a few ones who don't want to accept this...just like there are a few "scientists" who don't want to accept evolution...

On a final note, christ has nothing to do with me or my family's christmas celebration...and I don't see how or why this would bother you.

All the best.


Brianne Simpson says

...unless you are saying you believe the CHRISTIANS should keep christ in christmas...which I can understand (and respect) more....however, most people saying "Keep Christ in Christmas" are just angry that "their" holiday is becoming a secular celebration...


Jude Brian says

I feel sad and sorry for you... Well in that case, you might as well celebrate Easter, Hari Raya (Islamic), Chinese New Year, Deepavali (Hindu) And all the other religious holidays!
Why? Because you think it's cool and fun!

I feel sad for you. Merry Christmas anyways.



Brianne Simpson

haha why do you feel sorry for me??
because I can celebrate and appreciate without nonsense mythical idealogy?
I feel sorry for you that you lack the ability to critically reason.

My backyard constellations 5:01:00 AM

I’m so not feeling well for the past few days. Just having this feverish feeling. Well, I’m stuck at home now. I was supposed to go over to jimmy’s place today after dinner with my dad’s side. We wanted to watch some Russell Peter’s stand up comedies with chips and fuzzy juices. Darn fever, well at lease I enjoyed dinner.

Well, I’m so bored now. I was just looking up at the night sky. It’s so beautiful. I seriously want to get a proper telescope. But, it’s no use. What freaking constellations can you see in Singapore with all the light pollution? I tried going to Punggol end before, but the sky is still too bright.

So tonight I could see Venus and if I’m not wrong the other bright object was Sirius A. Well I tried using a telescope but sadly I couldn’t see the clouds of Venus. Another thing is, I’ve always wanted to see the rings of Saturn with my own eyes. It’s so freaking beautiful, Saturn is my favourite planet since young. But thanks to Singapore’s light pollution, this is not possible.

Well, I took this picture of the moon. I seriously think this it’s and awesome picture. I’m just waiting for this coming 12; it’ll be a full moon. So yea. We live in a universe of unimaginable scale and almost incomprehensible beauty. How is it that the light from distant galaxies takes so long to travel to our eyes and what beauty it has?
We’re not looking at the present, but what happened in the dinosaur era.

Christmas Chill 3:35:00 PM

Okay people! Christmas is coming soon! So you know what that means right??? Major shopping!! Go change that spending limit on that magic card of yours. Let’s shop like crazy fucks!!! Let it snow, let it snow!!!

Right now I’m just chilling at starbucks waiting for lil to finish school. well, the cups that they use at starbuscks have snow flakes on it. so cute. Well I hope nobody kills the spirit this year.
Anyways today I freaking went to school and guess what, there was no lesson again. Sheeez!
I so need a holiday right now.

This week 3:34:00 PM

Okay so much have happen since I’ve updated. Where should I start balls??
Okay Sharon had a whole week off for my mum’s and dad’s birthday. Finally I could spend some time with Sharon. She’s a workaholic. So anyways, one of the nights, we went for our night cycling. We planed to meet at dru’s bus stop. While we were on there lil fell down on her blades and fractured her wrist. so lucky timing, Clara was on the way home and offered to drive us to the hospital. Got to the A&E. waited there for like 4 hours. And lil went home being lame. Poor thing la that child.
Hahaha so yea. Well she’s back on her feet and we cycled to JK again. Last night was awesome! Hahaha

OH GOSH. I forgot the best part. The day after Lillian’s fall, we cycled to JK also. But this time, Sharon followed us. She was on a trolley and I pushed her all the way to JK. Hahahha. Half way there my blades just gave up and fell apart. So sickening! I need to get new blades now. So yea. That was such a cool night.

it's been far too long 5:16:00 AM

Sometimes I feel hurt deep down inside.
I say nothing; I tell myself maybe next time.
When the time comes, it happens again,
I wonder why, thinking to myself.

There is so much that I can take. The expectations are too high.
How could you do something like that?
Everything seems down but we’re just putting on masks.
Maybe I should leave? Or should I hold on and give it another try?

You seem so far away; you’ve gone for so long,
I don’t blame you.
You apologise, but make the same mistake.
Why do it then? I rather you keep things the way it was than change it.

I’m truly sorry. But I need some air.
It’s been awhile since the breeze has come.
I’ve now truly given up hope on you.
So sorry, but I can’t no more.

The night and dawn of the day 5:02:00 AM

Well oh well, I officially called the party a success! Hope everyone enjoyed it. it had it’s up and down, but I guess after all the hard work, it seriously paid off! Awesome Awesome Awesome! Thank you everyone for helping out in this party and supporting us!

Awesomelicious
