BUT...the seventh-day Sabbath is not one of those "feasts." Thats the first point. There are other points to be made here as well. Rom 2:14 simply tells us that even when people don't have a Bible, they "by nature" still know whats right and whats wrong. As it also says: Romans 2:14 is not a definition of "nature" it simply tells us that people are able to choose right or wrong because of that "measure of Faith," which is that "nature" by which we all know what God said. And God did say "the seventh-day..." is THE Sabbath. (and not of Moses). It will always be "the Sabbath of The Lord thy God."1 point -

Romans 2, 14: When Gentiles who have not the law do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus. Man is evidently not commanded "by nature" to observe any feast on the Jewish Liturgical Calendar. By nature it is not meant plants, animals and the like. This is speaking of what man "naturally knows", what his nature or consciousness tells him, it's that little voice each of us have that says what is wrong or right.1 point -

THIS sounds like "The Unknown God..." Putting an upper-case N at the beginning of this word doesn't turn it into some kind of divinity! I hope thats not what you mean by "nature." There is nothing in the Bible about "by nature." for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you: (Acts 17:26) "Nature" seems like a very "unknown God" to me. "Nature" does not tell us yes or no to scripture.1 point -

In the 1600s or so, as well as other points in history, Roman Catholics sort of did it to themselves, with some rather stringent legislation regarding "The Sunday Obligation," and "receiving of the sacraments." In turn, when Protestant's gained the political the upper-hand; in some cases; they retaliated with some pretty strong stuff of their own: This denominational brinkmanship just wont go away. Catholics still feel that "Sunday" is essential, and has "special importance:" They have always sought to enforce, in one degree or another "Sunday" by civil authorities. "Sunday" appears to be a very big part of RCC solutions to "climate" change.1 point -

6 Shocking Facts You Didn't Know About Johnny Carson On January 23, 2005, former Tonight Show host Johnny Carson died at age 79 at Cedar-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Here are 6 shocking facts you may not know about Johnny Carson... He Started Out as a Magician Johnny Carson discovered his love for entertaining people when he found a book on magic at a friend’s house. He quickly ordered a magician’s kit through the mail and started practicing his skills on family members. His mother sewed him a cape and he got his first paid gig at the age of 14, when he performed as “The Great Carsoni” and was paid $3 for a show. His magic performances continued when he joined the Navy, and at one point, he even performed magic tricks for the U.S. Secretary of the Navy. He Had His Own Talk Show Before Taking Over the Tonight Show. Carson got into radio broadcasting in the 1940s while in college and continued to broadcast after moving to California. He landed jobs as a comedy writer and suddenly found himself hosting on TV when his boss at the time, Red Skelton, suffered an injury. Carson became the host of the Johnny Carson Show in the mid-1950s. His Tonight Show stint didn't begin until 1962. He Hosted a Game Show Carson was picked to host the game show Who Do You Trust in the late 1950s, which is where he met Ed McMahon, who worked on the show as the announcer. It was a program where couples competed, and the man would be asked if he wanted to answer the question of whether his wife should. Carson spent a large part of the show interacting with the contestants, which helped land him the job on The Tonight Show after the retirement of Jack Paar. He Started a Toilet Paper Crisis Carson’s influence was so huge that he created a toilet paper crisis by just joking about it. In 1973, in jest, Carson alluded to an alleged toilet paper shortage in the markets. This created such panic in his viewers that people began to buy and stock up on toilet paper, creating an actual shortage in the market. Stores and manufacturers had to ration supplies until the alarm ended and Carson apologized for his role in starting the brouhaha. He Made The Game Twister a Pop Culture Sensation If it hadn’t been for Johnny Carson, Twister may have never gotten off the ground. On the night of May 3, 1966, host Johnny Carson played a game of Twister with glamorous actress Eva Gabor, star of television’s “Green Acres.” Sidekick Ed McMahon worked the spinner as Gabor and Carson soon became playfully entangled. Sales of the game soared the very next day! Twister proved a runaway success and has sold well ever since—all it took was a demonstration. He Taught Himself Russian and Swahili Carson did a lot in his lifetime, and that included learning languages to a conversational level. Carson reportedly learned Russian in about five months before traveling to Russia. After his retirement, he taught himself Swahili, which he used to communicate during several trips to Africa.1 point -

Yes, the article was clear - so why would they write an intentionally misleading and false headline? Why lie when the truth is sufficient? Yes, I am quite confident that this call, like the hundreds or thousands of calls before it, will also fall on deaf ears. ?1 point -
