Long story short we all got mugged at one time... two guys with guns can easily mug five or six people at once.... and we had all our available cash on us so we had to make do for the two week school... Didn't have credit cards back in those days.... I lived on Spaghetti-O's for two weeks and got quite fond of them. Still have them one night a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports teams also frequently use contrasting colors as they are easier to spot especially in a team dynamic, so for example orange and Blue are a popular pairing. Split complimentary color patterns also have the same effect, although more subtle, (Think Maize and Blue of U Of M) and allow for a third color of equal contrast to be incorporated in the design. Split complimentary colors are the two adjacent colors on the color wheel to the contrasting color. There is quite a science to color. An example of split complimentary on the following color wheel would be something like a shade of green with a shade of red violet, and red orange. One of these split compliments being the accent color. Again, the color selection is just a marketing tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The important thing to remember is that, whatever we do, it should be done to honour, glorify and please the Lord. It needs to be what he wants, done in his way, led by the Holy Spirit. What mandate has God given, in the Bible, to celebrate the Lord's birthday? Answer: none. Where has he told us how and when he wants us to celebrate the Lord's birthday? Answer: he has not. What is the root of the celebration held at this time of year? Answer: it is pagan. When was the Lord most likely born? Answer: the Passover lamb was a type of Christ, and we know the time of year in which the lambs were born. It seems most likely, therefore (although this is not absolute proof) that the Lord was born, died and rose again, in the Spring. What about the name of this festival, "Christmas"? Answer: it is a corruption of Christ Mass. This joins the name of our Lord with the blasphemy of the Roman Catholic Mass! In case anyone doubts this, there was a Roman Catholic at my work and he used to send an e-mail at this time of year, saying, "Happy Christ-Mass...". What about all the symbolism (Yule log, evergreen tree, fairy lights, mistletoe, etc.)? Answer: it is all pagan. What about the world (i.e. unbelievers), do they celebrate this festival? Answer: yes they do, with gusto! They treat it as an excuse for gluttony, drunkenness and debauchery, which leads us to the fruit of this festival. The root is pagan and fruit is...? Answer: there are more suicides at this time of year than any other; many professing Christians practise drunkenness and gluttony, who would not normally; depression is rife; many prayer meetings stop; the services are carol sandwiches; evangelism dries up to a large extent; sentimentality rears up its head; children are taught about "Santa" (who bears a remarkable resemblance to the false god Bacchus), etc, etc. So, why would any godly Christian want to "celebrate" this pagan festival? The only reasonable excuse I can think of is ignorance. Many Christians simply don't know much about it; but the rest, well, I wonder what they would say to the Lord, if they stood before him and he asked them to give an account of why they "celebrated" it?
