My daughter was up last night sewing a straight-jacket for herself. I helped her get the material and some odds and ends. That's biblical parenting right?

Who's going to hold her sack for her?

What if she trips?

No. Its not a religious holiday.




Galatians 5:22-23 (New International Version)

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

What are my fruits today?

She's going to be "escaped and on the loose" so her arms wont be tied.

Why would it be wrong?

I look forward to it every year. I'm envious of a friend of mine, she's been wearing a different costume to work every day this month.

I also go to sci-fi and anime conventions, renaissance festivals, and occasionally the local goth night club in costume as well. If that is wrong, i don't want to be right.

Depends, what are you celebrating? The day isn't unholy, what people do on any day is unholy.

Do you celebrate anniversaries, or birthdays? They fall on Pagan Holidays. There are only THREE DAYS on an american (gregoran?) Calendar that are not pagan holidays somewhere.

What is important is not the WHEN, but the WHAT you are celebrating.

Christmas falls at the same time of a dozen other faiths. If you celebrate Christ's birth, and not the birth of Mithra, or Ra, or or or.... what is the issue?

If you feel that is wrong, because other things are celebrated on that day by other people, you have 3 days to get all your celebrations in on. Good luck.
