Considering my walk with the dark side in the late 70s, I personally could do without it. But with my retired kindergarten teacher wife; she enjoys interfacing with the kids, so seeings she's not a witch, I suffer with it for her sake. But it does bother me when people completely trivialize it as meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was 10 it was about going trick or treating. I had no idea about any of it. Now that I'm older and wiser I stay as far away as possible. We put up FALL decorations. Not HALLOWEEN decorations. Wouldn't it be interesting if the Lord decided to return on halloween? Be like- Knock yourselves out there, here's the real thing. You like dark? We have dark. You like scary? We have scary. You like demons ghosts and goblins? No more need for costumes. Hell is literally coming from the pit to your nearest neighborhood. Dead people? Why pretend? Blood and gore? Witches, I mean real witches? Now you will see how they really are. No thanks. You can keep halloween. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years ago the police really cracked down on it and anyone could get a notice to put in a window to say NO ,,, if kids called at those houses the parents would receive a hefty fine . .I normally leave the lights off and ignore it all especially as I live on a very busy main road and there are not many children that live around here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, it gets tiring because we see a witch fly out on her broom all the time after she is done being speaker of the House for the day. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only those few who like to copy American culture. I rather like dress up but on the whole I could live without it. I eonder if we will see some fresh arguments this year. Should be interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some will see a devil around every corner. Some will try to balance a view that agrees with everything. If only looking at the superficial, it all just looks like retailers selling Halloween stuff to people dressing up for fun, and to a large degree that's what it probably is. Like everything else there is a deeper more dark place where people take the holiday deadly serious in ways I prefer not to talk about because it is so very dark. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
