When did G-d state it was acceptable to Him to "christianize" pagan holidays for Him???
When Ancient Israel did it, He called it an abomination (even when they had easter sunrise services in the Holy Temple) and He sent Ezekiel to tell them it was not acceptable - and they told Ezekiel to 'Go away, Ezekiel, we will worship G-d OUR way' (Ezekiel chapter 8)
Read Ezekiel chapter 8 and Jeremiah chapter 10 and you will see that G-d called Ancient Israel's easter and christmass celebrations an abomination. (and if you do not believe Jeremiah 10 is about christmass trees - then why do you sing 'oh christmas tree, oh christmas tree' ??? )
Peggy McIlveene admits that she knows that christmass and ishtar are pagan - yet she, like Ancient Israel, will worship G-d HER way instead of how G-d wants to be worshiped (she even eats pork and shellfish - going by the recipes she posts - in disobedience to what G-d commanded)

"TO Mark Copfer - "Re: Gettin close, gettin darn close and when are the Christian feasts?..."
Hi, Mark!
From everything I’ve read, Thanksgiving was patterned after the Feast of Tabernacles, which is a time of thanksgiving, so my guess is that Christmas is about the only widely celebrated “Christian” holiday. Even though the holiday has pagan roots, that is NOT the reason why most Christians celebrate Christmas… I can speak from personal experience. I know it came from heathen roots, as did Easter celebration, but I still celebrate it as Yahshua’s birthday, even knowing He was more than likely born on Feast of Trumpets that year. And even though Easter has heathen roots, I still celebrate His resurrection on Easter Sunday.
Love from your sister in Yahshua!
