MARRY CHRISTMAS !!!
« on: December 24, 2006, 01:18:13 AM »
Hello, 
Christmas Day falls on December 25. It is preceded by Christmas Eve on December 24, and in some countries is followed by Boxing Day on December 26. Some Eastern Orthodox Churches celebrate Christmas on January 7, which corresponds to December 25 on the Julian calendar. December 25 as a birthdate for Jesus is merely traditional, and is not thought to be his actual date of birth. Regards

Christmas was much cooler back when it was just a pagan holiday.

Oh wait... it still is!

My new slogan, "Let's keep the Christ in Winter Solstice."

Christmas was never a Pagan holiday.

But Christians took Pagan traditions in order to convert people to Christianity.

That's my point. I wasn't inferring that the pagans were celebrating the birth of Jesus... what did you think I meant?

Ah, that's our new shop deck (sorry Muska, hehehe). The artist is a guy named Randy Muller... a sick skater and tattoo artist from New Orleans.

"Christmas was much cooler back when it was just a pagan holiday." Kind of implied that you thought Christmas was a Pagan holiday.

All a misunderstanding.

Yeah jrock... Randy's sort of like our very own Salba... every time we think we've discovered something new, he pulls out a stack of photos from a session he had in it a month ago, haha.

Also, you haven't been rolling with Todd T? That dude's like the MapQuest of spots.

THANK YOU JESUS FOR MY LIFE

thank you for my skill

thank you for lettinmebemyself

thank you LORD ALMIGHTY

i am forever greatful

i am truly blessed

i realize that its not cool to be christian or believe in god

but

most of the people that dont, have never had any hardship in thier lives whatsoever

or god didnt come through when you actually got the courage to ask him for something

there will be a time in ALL of your lives

even the most aethiest of you

when you will break down and fall on your knees and pray

and cry like a baby and call upon his name

it WILL happen

then you will know

until then...................live life to the fullest

i never push my beliefs

i just rep

and it doesnt bother me that people disagree
