i can respect people who don't want to celebrate halloween for religious reasons, but i don't totally understand their objections. Halloween isn't about paganism or devil worship anymore, it's just a kid's holiday to dress up, have fun, and get a sugar rush from candy. RELAX!

OK, Im in college in Atchison, KS and im from St. Louis, MO. Where i come from, the kids have to tell a joke if they want to get candy. When i was a kid, we'd seriously ponder over what joke we'd tell for at least two weeks before halloween. We had to be sure that no other kid in the whole neighborhood had the same joke we had. It was a serious pride issue if some mom that was givin out candy knew the answer to your joke. We'd even have some backup jokes just in case someone knew the answer. WE HAD TO WORK FOR OUR CANDY!!!!! Its shameful that no one round here (atchison) has ever heard of this concept!


with my angry face on,

I don't like Halloween or horror movies or ghost stories because it encourages intrigue & fosters curiosity in the devil.

Come on, that's what it does to the majority of American teenagers these days. Probably not to the majority of phatmassers, but still.

That's like saying music doesn't influence how kids act.

That's just lame. [/quote]
As an extremely lame phatmasser, I take offense at being grouped with the Halloween-haters. <_<
