   This is a topic that creates much angst among believers. I’ve even had several believers acknowledge that Christmas & its trimmings are pagan in origin and not Biblical, but they felt they needed to continue with the traditions “because of the children.” As though the kids would be wounded beyond repair if they didn’t have a Christmas tree? It’s one thing to not have revelation. It’s quite another to see the truth and choose to ignore it.

     A similar discussion took place at our fellowship last Shabbat. I said, ‘Let me and my generation bear the discomfort of making the switch so that my children and their children are raised within a new paradigm and do not have to face the challenge of making the change.’

     Bottom-line: Somebody will have to go through some pain. I’d rather it be me than my children or farther down the line… ie, let’s get it over with!

     You also make a great point! “It’s one thing to not have revelation. It’s quite another to see the truth and choose to ignore it.”
