The best Halloweens were during the 80’s when my bands would play and the Strippers would be wearing Naughty Nurse costumes.

memories . . .

You must be a lot of fun at parties.

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays.

Now, kids who make their costumes are laughed at.

And all they'll get is a rock.

Dude, you know what’s worse than elaborate store bought costumes? About 5 years ago, at least half of the older kids who come by, HAVE NO COSTUME ON AT ALL!!!! Jeans and t shirts!!! And this is in a very nice very caucasian neighborhood.

Funny how some people will go so far out of their way not to have some fun.

Lighten up.

I think all religous observances for ALL religions should be replaced with Festivus!

Once a year for all people and all religions one holiday!

Grow up and get a life! You sound pretty graceless to me.

I’m guessing Berman doesn’t do Easter or Christmas either.

Since those two holidays also have ties to ancient heathen cults or practices.

Berman probably doesn't celebrate Easter or Christmas because he's Jewish.

Before that can be answered, further research needs to be done as to whether Catholics also ruined Groundhog Day by starting Groundhog Day.

Obviously.

If you don’t like Halloween, then don’t participate. No one really cares.

Chocolate, yes.  Candy Corn?

HELL NO!!

I hate Candy Corn. I teach my children that if given Candy Corn to throw it back in their face.

Candy Corn is the Fruit of the Devil.

I agree with not celebrating Halloween. However, if you’re going to be consistent Christmas and Easter have to go too. The origins of Christmas are in pagan winter solstice celebrations. Just about everything associated with the holiday, from the tree and yule log to gift giving, flows directly from pagan celebrations. Easter is much the same, its origins are in sex and fertility springtime pagan holidays. Thus the rabbits and eggs. I’m all in favor of ridding the church of all of these holidays.
