🤔🤔 should christians celebrate valentine's 💝 day 💘
Posted : 9 Feb, 2022 02:53 PM
there is no biblical reason why Christians should not celebrate Valentine’s Day by giving their loved ones flowers, candy and/or cards. As with celebrating any holiday, the decision should be between the individual and God. Some people feel very strongly that observing any secular holiday is wrong, while others see it as harmless. The important thing to remember is that celebrating or not celebrating holidays should not be a cause for pride or division among Christians
1 Corinthians 10:13
" so whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God "

Does anyone know why rsvp is soooooo into PAGAN 'holiday's' desperately trying to 'Christianize' them for all his might??? Thread after thread since the PAGAN month of october starting with his worshipped HALO-ween of demons, then into December with his IDOL of sun worship called x'mass when supposedly the Messiah was suppose to be born but of course we all know that's a LIE Him even being born IN THE DEAD OF WINTER???
And here we are in the PAGAN month of february and he wants to celebrate the disrespect of women!!! WHY???
Valentine's Day is supposedly a time to celebrate romance and love. But the origins of this CULT PAGAN festival of candy and PAGAN cupids are actually dark, bloody — and a bit muddled.
Though most claim to not know the origin of the so called 'holiday', one good place to start is WICKED ancient Rome, where men hit on women by, well, HITTING THEM.
Those Wild PAGAN And Crazy WICKED Romans!
From Feb. 13 to 15, the Romans celebrated the feast of Lupercalia. The sinful men sacrificed a goat and a dog, then whipped women with the hides of the animals they had just slain.
The Roman 'romantics' so called yet "were drunk. They were naked," says Noel Lenski, a historian at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Young women would actually line up for the men to hit them, Lenski says. They believed this would make them fertile??? LOL!
The brutal fete included a matchmaking lottery (oooh my!), in which young wicked men drew the names of women from a jar. The couple would then be, um, coupled up for the duration of the sinful PAGAN festival — or longer, if the match was right.
Ted ask, everybody remember in grade school putting all the little girls and boys names in a box and the then picking names out of the box to be their sweetheart??? SOUND FAMILAR to
the PAGAN FESTIVAL OF ROMAN SEX 'coupling' thingy???
So called modern 'christianity' takes over valentine's day! In 469, Pope Gelasius declared February 14th a >>>holy day<<< in honor of Valentinus, instead of the pagan god Lupercus. He also adapted some of the pagan celebrations of love to reflect so called 'christian' beliefs. For example, as part of the Juno Februata ritual, instead of pulling girls names from boxes, both boys and girls chose the names of martyred saints from a box.
The ancient Romans may also be responsible for the name of our modern so called 'day of love'. Emperor Claudius II executed two men — both named Valentine — on Feb. 14 of different years in the 3rd century A.D. Their martyrdom was honored by the Catholic Church with the celebration of St. Valentine's Day.
Ted writes - Ooooh now it makes sense, the cathoholic FIRST BEAST of Revelation chapter 13, having something to do with this WICKED PAGAN so called 'holiday' also linked NOW with DEATH of course!
Later, Pope Gelasius I (Of COURSE! Go figure!) muddled things in the 5th century by combining St. Valentine's Day with Lupercalia to expel the pagan rituals. But the festival was more of a theatrical interpretation of what it had once been. Lenski adds, "It was a little more of a drunken revel, but the so called 'christians' put clothes back on it. (LOL!) That didn't stop it from being a day of fertility and love though."
Around the same time, the Normans celebrated Galatin's Day. Galatin meant "lover of women." That was likely confused with St. Valentine's Day at some point, in part because they sound alike.
Eventually, the CULT cathoholic approved tradition made its way to the New World. The industrial revolution ushered in factory-made cards in the 19th century. And in 1913, Hallmark Cards of Kansas City, Mo., began mass producing valentines. February has not been the same since. (Ooooh boy lets all make money says the businesses and make people FAT eating candy!)
Today, the PAGAN 'holiday' is big business: According to market research firm IBIS World, Valentine's Day sales reached $17.6 billion last year; this year's sales are expected to total $18.6 billion.
But that commercialization has spoiled the day for many. Helen Fisher, a sociologist at Rutgers University, says we have only ourselves to blame. (TRUE, SO TRUE of the FAKE 'christians' participating in the costly ritual!)
"This isn't a command performance," she says. "If people just did not buy Hallmark cards, they would not be bought, and Hallmark would go out of business."
And so the PAGAN celebration of Valentine's Day goes on, in varied ways. Many will break the bank buying jewelry and flowers for their beloveds. Others will celebrate in a SAD (that's - Single Awareness Day) way, dining alone and binging on self-gifted chocolates. A few may even be spending this day the same way the early PAGAN Romans did. But let's not go there.
Ted writes - Sounds like another way for SUICIDE from depression when you have no sweetheart, very much like x-mass time in the PAGAN month of 'december' when people get depressed because they are drawn into the PAGAN event only to be alone and depressed with no giving of gifts!!! SAD, SO VERY SAD, these wicked PAGAN so called 'holidays' for the wicked and then so called 'christians' participating in them??????????????????????????

The Plagiarizing false teacher TeddyBug, who copies other people’s writings without giving them credit, doesn’t even know how to appropriately quote authors.
It’s highly unlikely the TeddyBug did his own research on the history of Valentine’s Day‼️ So—what source did the TeddyBug copy from⁉️⁉️ W-H-A-T sources⁉️⁉️
So—TeddyBug, WHO or WHAT author is claiming the Pope and others said what you posted (WHO and from WHERE—name your source)⁉️⁉️ What source documents these people having actually said the things you’re claiming⁉️⁉️⁉️
Who’s or what is the source from which you received your information⁉️⁉️
TeddyBug, Plagiarism is stealing from the writings of other people without giving them credit‼️
