[@justforever96]

I mean the list of classic Christmas carols isn't that big, so most of the Christmas carols are "one of the greatest" if you actually know them. And a carol by definition is sacred. If it's not sacred, it's not a carol, it's a Christmas song, or worse, a holiday song. But yes, for me this is the quintessential carol. I don't my favorite necessarily, but it's the exemplar somehow, perfect on every way. Gotta say, some of the lesser known stuff is just bangin as well. I didn't know that medieval Christmas music was an available genre until last year, and some of that is really good stuff, and a couple of my favorites are from the shape note tradition, Star In The East is one, Babe of Bethlehem is another. Sherburne and Milford. And I think it's a newer composition in the old style, but the song Glory Shone Around in the Shenandoah Harmony (and the Cooper Sacred Harp) goes hard, literally.

There are plenty of baptist churches in america SBC here in FL that have the traditional hymns. I suggest an episcopal church for you.If you are afraid they are too liberal in the episcopal church (some can be even for me) try the anglican church north america. Go and really LISTEN to the words of the liturgy....which is scripture based. Consistency keeps the preacher's "God I wanna" laundry list in check. (There is free prayer time, but you should also be doing that before, during, and after the service on your own). Don't dismiss the standing, sitting, and kneeling as "aerobics". We stand to praise (and for Jesus' gospel) sit to be instructed, (sermon and announcements) and kneel in supplication and repentance (communion/eucharist/thanksgiving/general confession). Noone gets mad if you "mess up" or say something incorrectly. (But saying "amen's" during a sermon is generally not done.)

Or when he didn't know when figs are in season so he threw a temper tantrum and killed the tree? Or where he said that if you aren't with him, you are against him? Or where he turns his back on his mother and family? Or where he advocates thought crime?

It is the Catholic lyrics being used in the Hymn. Both Anglicans and Catholics have a lot of similarities, but they also have a good number of differences. But I do consider them as Authentic Christian Churches unlike the money making scam so called Mega Churches run by pastors who are only in it for money.

The big difference between the two faiths is lose the Pope and add women clergy. Some high Anglican churches are more RC than some main stream RC around here. My wife is a former RC and now is an Anglican Priest, a Canon of our Cathedral.

Same bought up ROMAN CATHOLIC in ENGLAND with a IRISH FATHER who dragged me and my BROTHER to CHURCH every SUNDAY And we absolutely HATED IT and that's what probably put me off RELIGION for LIFE but i like some of the HYMNS though like this..

[@NP-ui3tr]

@@gordonsmith8899 Lmao okay Have you read the gnostic texts? The Books of Thomas, Judas, or Mary Magdalene? There was never any “push” or even a thought of a brick and mortar church; and certainly nothing to suggest the creation like the Vatican or the Bishop of Rome in those texts which were written in the 1st century CE I’ve had experiences w the “divine” completely sober that would “knock your socks off lol. I’ve been shown a “peek behind the veil” and it’s changed my life & worldview completely (no psychedelics or anything, although I highly recommend everyone have at least one experience with psychedelics before they die) Christmas & the birth sequence of Christ is all astronomical anyways. Not to mention on a temple wall in Luxor Egypt there’s a relief that depicts the birth sequence of Horace….its the same as “Jesus Christ” and it’s over 2000yrs before “JC” was even a thought Do unto others as you would have done to yourself & everything else takes care of itself We need to dissociate spirituality from religion & man made dogmatic beliefs about “god” order to receive the fruits of truth & to create the world we all deserve to live in

[@NP-ui3tr]

@@gordonsmith8899 I just want to follow up in case my original comment didn’t come through First: LOL. So doing unto others as you would have done unto you, doesn’t matter? Why do we have to have “religious faith” in order to be good people? Some of the most judgmental, bigoted, and (unconsciously) hateful people I’ve ever met were “true believers” Seeing how it’s Christmas time, perhaps you should look into how the Church came up with Dec 25th as the day of Christs birth; I’ll save you some trouble, one it made conversion less of a shock to the Pagan cults of Mythra that was popular in Rome/Italy prior to Christianity being set at the official religion of the Roman’s by Constantine. Second, it’s all astronomical, the sun “dies” on Dec 21st & stays at that low point in the sky for 3/4days…then around Dec 24/25th it rises one degree in the sky signaling the coming of warmer weather in 3mo time There is a plethora of evidence to support that Jesus Christ was a sun god who “became” a Jewish man In Luxor Egypt on a temple wall is a relief of the birth sequence that is described in the Bible; except it’s not about Jesus Christ, but rather about Horace. The events are the same; only the names, location & context are different & the fact that it’s at least 2500yrs older than the birth of Christianity or “christ”but the devil probably put that there to test our/your faith, right? And for the record, the reason why the old carols & chants of the Catholic Church produce such a strong internal response by our bodies is bc of their frequency & vibrations. When coupled with the acoustic properties of the old cathedrals, these musical effects actually resonate with our minds (dna) in a way that produces such a powerful response (why people cry, including me) it’s not something “godly” or anything to do with spirituality but rather a scientific phenomenon that was well known by the early church Think of the Gregorian chants, Hebrew & Islamic prayers (turning candle flames purple or blue) etc. All have to do with manipulating energy thru the frequencies of sound waves. This “mystical” thing was well known & capitalized on to “enthrall” the masses or the unlearned in an effort to further control them & their lives Wake up! Spirituality is not religion. Religion does nothing to advance our spiritual development or lives; it hinders it! I’ve had experiences with the “divine” that’d blow your socks off. Completely sober too lol although I highly recommend using psychedelics at least once before you die so you can get a taste of what is unseen but always there…beyond our senses hopefully lose your fear of death too which is what I believe 99% of believers are actually doing by attending or subscribing to a religion. Stop clinging! Once you “let go,” the freedom is incredible My heart is light as a feather; how’s yours?

What are you talking about? A lot of atheists lead very fulfilling lives because I know a lot who are working in parks or with animals and nature. I am raised Christian too but I have come to learn from a decade of travelling and protecting wildlife that atheists are not without morals or beliefs. In fact, a lot of them act more saintly and in peace than many faithful people themselves. While all of us are in church, they are out there actively protecting and caring for God's creations. I'm not saying this to imply that one is better than the other. I just think it's important to not get too caught up with being a Christian but we forget to act like one. No matter how superior you think you are to other people's religions and those without, only God can judge the true goodness of people.
