Should Valentine’s Day and the celebrations accompanying it be made illegal?

Valentine’s Day is a pagan holiday. It is dedicated to one days of sin and debauchery. God, she emphasized that fornication, adultery and coveting your neighbor’s wife his sinful activities. Valentine would be illegal because it promotes breaking God’s law?

    Fornication, adultery, and coveting thy neighbor’s wife? You’ve been getting some interesting valentines, I take it.

  2. Noki Slovlaklovich says:

    I’m sorry that you didn’t get any today, but don’t take it out on everyone else…

  3. says:

    They aren’t going to change a holiday because some religious fanatic said god said so.

    Perhaps in the Vatican, but not in the US. There is no problem with Valentines Day unless you happen to be in a garage in Chicago.

    What are ‘your’ real motives then?? (Then go close up all the movie theaters, amusement parks, ball parks, race tracks,, etc…) It is the same thing! Why can’t we all just have some fun with stuff??

  6. Interior Castle says:

    But it doesn’t. You are wrong on all counts.

    It is ST Valentine’s Day.
    It is not pagan.
    It is devoted to honoring a very holy man and the work he did to get couples together.
    ANd what does it even mean to make the day illegal. You go to jail for buying a card ! Any card ?

    You are dumb and mean, the worst combination.

  7. batgirl2good says:

    This is idiotic. It is NOT a day “devoted to sin and fornication,” and you know it.
    You’re a troll. You are not a religious fanatic. You’re a liar trying to start trouble.

    Grow up.

    YOUR questions ought to be made illegal.

    And here I thought it was about showing appreciation to your significant other. I had no idea I was supposed to be seeking adulterous relationships on that day. I’ve learned so many new things on R & S!

    Okay, fellow posters, who wants to PROPERLY celebrate tomorrow with me?

  9. Monica P says:

    no its OK for atheist to participate
    why not have your church tell their flocks to not participate
    and don’t worry so much about the rest of us

  10. Night Nurse says:

    Valentines Day is a money spinner.

  11. ?? ????? says:

    In our islam there is nothing such Valentines day . It is for cristians only . It is haram to celebrate it . wa ALLAH a3lam.

  12. Rossonero NorCal SFECU says:

    I’m sure even you can troll better than this…. If not, maybe you can find a competent troll who would be willing to mentor you? (and no it shouldn’t be made illegal)

  13. Divider of Truth says:

    WHY are there SO many of you out there that wish to put us back under the Law of Moses? Christ nailed the Law to His cross, and took it out of our way. Col. 2:13,14

    Yeah….. the buying of Candy and a Card for the one you love is really making God angry……….. get real, man.

  14. PROBLEM JPAS says:

    um…it’s Saint Valentine’s Day

  15. Simple says:

    No.
    Gods word also says to not let anyone judge you according to the celebrations and festivals in which you participate.

    Further when I participate in Valentines day I only have eyes for my wife.

    Have a nice day.

    Edit: From scripture, It can be argued that almost anything one does is sin. If indeed your guilt is so great, Go see the Rabi. Perhaps He can extracate you from your guilt from showing love.

    Actually…[the Russian Duma this week introduced a series of bills designed to uphold the spiritual values of children by protecting their morals.

    The legislation envisages a ban on the sale of children’s toys that “provoke aggression”, “model actions of a sexual nature”, “justify extremism and a criminal lifestyle”, “depict horror or unbearable pain” or are created “on the basis of the psychologically incongruous”.

    Under the new law, schools would also be forbidden from celebrating Halloween and St Valentine’s Day because they were inappropriate to ‘Russian cultural values.”

    All school children would also be subject to a 10pm curfew, while minors would be banned from wearing tattoos and body-piercing. Mobile phone providers are to be instructed to block text messages sent by children than contain obscenities. ]

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/russia/2070984/Russia-to-ban-Valentine’s-Day-to-’save’-youth.html

    That news article is from last year. The “??????????????? ????” wasn’t able to pass those bills.

    That is an encroachment on freedom. Some Christians in Russia seem to think that Russia should be a “Christian Nation” though. And God the dictator of our country.

    No thanks.

    Answer: No. It should not be made illegal.
    That’s bizarre. Why would you want an ion chain on the neck and body of the people?

    um the morden santa is based of the norse version thats why there are elves
    halo’s are actually sundisks from the pagan sun religion
    and new years comes from asia
    wanna fix those too

  18. Jean Valjean says:

    yeah, for no other reason than it gets on my t!ts

  19. nimrod13 says:

    We may live in a mostly Christian country, but our founding fathers established something called the SEPARATION of Church and State. It’s a moot point whether Valentine’s Day is Pagan, or if it is devoted to the things you mention, NOTHING should be made illegal because of anyone’s God, regardless of what religion you may be referring to.

  20. Aislynn says:

    So a married couple who wish to celebrate the day by showing affection is a sin?
    A couple who are dating shouldn’t show their appreciation of the love they get from their partners on this day because it is a sin?
    People that get married on this day BECAUSE it’s Valentines day are committing sin?

    I think you need to renounce your trolling ways young one.

    Greetings!

    Don`t be silly!

    God never said anything like that, only Fanatic Monks, locked in a dark, damp cell, would have such fantasies……..and you, I guess!

    But, if you want to make a sign, and march around with it, yelling at the top of your voice, be my guest. You can you know, and it`s because we have Freedom of Choice, unlike many Religious States.

    /!
