Halloween, dangerous? Halloween, demonic? Sure, it's not my cup of tea, and there are a few assholes out there who poison the candy, but its intent in this day and age is for innocent fun and nothing more (except for those who hold it as religious). Give me a fucking break!

[North Suran]

Not to mention the obvious fact that Halloween is a Celtic holiday, not a Satanic one.

Shhh!!! Don't let facts get in the way of a good fundamentalist rant!

1. all known cases of poisoned candy were either from china or from a relative of the child

[Kryozerkia]

Nice one, you almost had me going for a while. For a moment, I actually believed that you linked us to a legitimate site. Hah! The gig's up; we know this is just more evidence of someone taking Poe to a whole new level. Right...? Right?!

[Kantria]

Meh. You hear this silliness every year around this time. Just some windbag's rant. Pay it no mind.

[Monte Mare]

Bullshit...

Demon sex and revel nights? Where the hell can I find those parties?

"OMG, I has a greatest idea! Lets all dress up. No, listens to me. Now! You, little girl, will be a princess. Pink dress, crown. All fake, but is good still. You, wife. Be a witch. You is old alreadys. Little boy, you will be a robot. Beep beep, now go away. I will be a zombie. Afterwards, we will get some candies from the folks from the other side of the street, and then we can finally appease our dark lord and master Stan.. er Satan."

Spelling and wording is intentional to demonstrate my sarcasm. Please make a note of it.

It's only evil because people are afraid of what they don't know, or refuse to learn.

If you do, be sure to PM me.. otherwise I'll most likely spend my evening consuming poisoned goods in the middle of my pentagram.

CBN.. sheesh.

I did have a question brewing today in light of last year there being a lot of complaints about holiday decorations in public places that were based off of religious holidays. It raise the question as to whether or not Halloween decorations would fall under the same category.

But that has really nothing to do with this, and I can only throw in my small opinion as to say the holiday is harmless fun.

Minus the night rape and pranks.

[Bunyippie]

the worst part is those same people try to pass laws to enforce their views on others.

[South Lorenya]

Shhhh, we all know that Satan's the good guy -- after all, my survey of a large* number of people included that 9 out of 10 americans thick Satan's the good twin and Dick Cheney's the evil twin!

* Assuming you consider zero to be a large number.

[Maurepas]

Meh, they go at it with some fervor down here every year...Noone gives a damn, Trick or treating still gets a pretty popular response in the neighborhoods...

Wait...are you implying that thats somehow untrue?

[South Lorenya]

Well, if I include my opinion it goes up to 100%.

I can't see how halloween decorations can really count as 'religious', since halloween, itself, isn't a religious holiday.

Somehow I doubt these people would see much of a difference.

Idk, Ive heard the Southern Baptist Preachers talk about Halloween before...its rather similar, to say the least...

[Autumn Wind]

I'll add it to the list of things that I'm supposed to be worried about.

Let's see... Halloween will fit in nicely between Dungeons and Dragons and the Killer Bees.

EDIT: This does raise a good point: If the fundies are attacking a pagan holiday like Halloween, are they going to be joining the war on that other pagan holiday, Christmas?

[The Norse Hordes]

The word "occult" means "secret." The danger of Halloween is not in the scary things we see but in the secret, wicked, cruel activities that go on behind the scenes. These activities include:

■Sex with demons
■Orgies between animals and humans
■Animal and human sacrifices
■Sacrificing babies to shed innocent blood
■Rape and molestation of adults, children and babies
■Revel nights
■Conjuring of demons and casting of spells
■Release of "time-released" curses against the innocent and the ignorant.
Another abomination that goes on behind the scenes of Halloween is necromancy, or communication with the dead. Séances and contacting spirit guides are very popular on Halloween, so there is a lot of darkness lurking in the air.

BUWHAHAHAHAHA!

God damnit. The Christian community makes me so happy.
