You’re afraid to celebrate something Christian on the same day that pagans are celebrating something else

Halloween is not Christian and never was. It has NOTHING to do with Christ. It is All Hallow's Eve when the spirits cause mischief. Witches "celebrate" the earth dying. And Christ is nowhere represented in it. Witches, ghosts, ghouls and goblins but not Jesus.

If you weren’t afraid you could use Halloween, which is about demonstrating your power against evil, to mock those pagans you used to be one of. Instead you flee in terror from the day.

Dang you're clueless. On a great many things. Hopefully you'll have an epiphany.

The modern Halloween, the evening before All Saints Day, IS Christian. Just like you it’s been converted. It’s is no longer a pagan holiday, hasn’t been for hundreds of years. Time to catch up.

Yup, now you leash out with the insults. Entirely typical of the fear response.

Just one question, did you ever go collecting candy on Halloween night? If not, then you are clueless. If you did, then why are you still clueless? There quite probably pagans somewhere running around doing who knows what, but the little kids collecting candy aren't involved in any of that. And unless they have bizarre families, they won't grow up thinking that Halloween is something besides free candy night.
