Christian Conservatives have LOST the war on Halloween! Hail Satan!
Edited on Tue Oct-31-06 10:59 AM by Philosoraptor
They tried valiently to destroy the sacred holiday of Halloween, making creepy Christian haunted houses for the kiddies, telling them its the devil's holiday, telling them it's evil to dress up silly and beg for candy.

But they have been vanquished! Defeated! Conquered! The Evil Dark overlord Satan has won!

Bwaaaahhaaaa! Mwahh haaaahhhaa!

2. The war on Samhain.
Halloween is a coruption of their name of All Hallows eve.

No one at Wal-Mart wished me a "Blessed Samhain". So, they must be anti-samhain.

Didn't say "Eid Mubarak" either...



Peace.

5. Have they lost...
...or are they merely retreating and regrouping for a full-tilt counter-"war on Christmas"?

6. I think that is their strategy
They cut & ran on Halloween and went straight on to the War on Christmas.

I posted in the Lounge that I was amazed that so many retailers were decorated for frackin' Christmas by Labor Day! I'm not joking, either. I went into a Lowe's and they had a whole section with Christmas trees & XMas paraphanalia.

An early Happy Holidays to you, though.

7. All I need to know about Halloween I learned from Jack Chick
Like how Druids would leave carved pumpkins outside the houses of families they had stolen a child from for their human sacrifices... even though the new world had not been discovered yet, and pumpkins hadn't been introduced to Europe. That's how powerful the devil is!

12. Christians with senses of humor are always welcome.
But some people just can't get a joke.

14. Christian Conservatives who oppose Halloween . . .
. . . because it's the Devil's holiday - eh, probably not.

10. We always had Halloween in the conservative community I grew up in
There were probably some families who didn't participate, but everyone in my neighborhood did, the liberals (all 10 of us) and the dutch reformed alike.

The anti-Halloween christians are generally about as far outside the mainstream as Jehovah's Witnesses.
