I thought it was 1 Nov that churches celebrated as All Saints Day.

@OldBrit respectfully I have never heard that in my life
The problem with the church is the church is extremely ignorant. I grew up in a church and actually opened my Bible and made an effort to understand what we were following. And with that kind of knowledge and understanding it becomes very clear to you how ignorant the church actually is as a collective conscience. Most of them show up to church and have no idea what it means to be a Christian

@OldBrit the emphasis on so called "saints" is mostly a European/catholic thing, to us they're no more or less important than any other biblical figures, and we definitely don't worship them. All that confessing sins to priest & praying to saints and saying seven hail marys.... completely meaningless

@wildbill83 yeah, I don’t believe in catholic beliefs. their beliefs directly contradict the Bible. Who is self proclaimed important enough that they need to relay messages between god and I? Don’t worship idols but worship Mary and rosary and do weird satanic like rituals and attend a completely red church because it resembles the blood
It doesn’t sit right with my spirit at all
