THANK GOD IT’S FRIDAY
HALLOWEEN WEEKEND!
Thanks DJ, for posting that video. I hadn’t known the history of Halloween. I do now.
So based on its history Halloween isn’t rooted in some “satanic” or “evil” pagan ritual (the key word being “satanic” or “evil”), as some radical Christian zealots have claimed for so long.
My mom (a deeply religious woman) certainly had no qualms about allowing my sibs and I to dress-up in Halloween costumes and go Trick-or-Treating when we were kids. Truth be told, she looked forward to it almost as much as we did. 🙂 !
TGIF!
