    Is it okay for me to celebrate my birthday (Noahide)?
    I am a Noahide so I'm only bound by the Seven Laws of Noah to be a righteous Gentile. My 21st birthday is coming up in March and is celebrating birthdays okay? I'm not talking wild parties, just a dinner out with friends and family. I'm just wanting to make sure since the Seven Laws have lots of commentary and explanations.

    For anyone who doesn't know, here are the seven laws --

    The prohibition of Idolatry.
    The prohibition of Murder.
    The prohibition of Theft.
    The prohibition of Sexual immorality.
    The prohibition of Blasphemy.
    The prohibition of eating flesh taken from an animal while it is still alive.
    The requirement of maintaining courts to provide legal recourse.

    Nothing about celebrating birthdays, so you're good to go.
