Pagan Idols

[Diva]

Religion has always been one of my week points. I could never quite understand all of the contradictions.

Pagan idols. We're not supposed to have them. G-d tells Moses, Moses tells the people, Macys' has a sale and G-d gets the proverbial middle finger.

There are other "idols" that I think are Pagan. Which ones are and what are your thoughts on the use of them. I'll put the soapbox up for Marie.

Money, power, the weather elements, a mountain? Guess it depends on how you define 'pagan'.

[Diva]

As in the Bible. G-d does not want people to worshop fase G-ds. Before then, they worshiped everything under the sun. Hell, even the sun, too. Of the choices above, do you see false idol that is worshiped?

[SysLord]

Santa Claus is fake for sure as it was invented by Coca Cola co.

Just tought I'd a comment on the Christmas tree: if my memory doesn't delude me, the christmas tree is a true pagan symbol as it was used in Celtic rites.

Hey man dont you go destroying my faith in santa. Coca Cola didnt create him they only gave him the red and white colours before coke came on the scene he was red and green. :rude: So just piss off and leave santa alone :( or
G-D will get you

[SysLord]

Do I have to be scared now? :D
