Hanukkah Harry

It is sad to see so many believers jump out of the pan of Christian Tradition just to land in the pot of Jewish Tradition and vice versa.

QUESTION: What festival is known as the feast of lights, also known as the feast of dedication, lasts 8 days, time of gift giving, time of playing games, time for eating pancakes and a goose, time for taking off from work, time for gathering with friends and family, an ancient  man-made tradition, time for lighting candles, time for gambling, time for drinking alcoholic beverages, time for decorating homes, time for feasting, time for singing carols, happens in December, time for giving alms, time for role reversing, uses a bush or a tree, and has a tradition of putting candles on the outside of the home?

ANSWER: This festival was originally called Saturnalia, but now we call it Hanukkah and Christmas.

Brothers and sisters please hear me and wake from the deception.
