I love Halloween!! Of course the candy company kind of warped the original belief on it but I love the holiday, the decorations, all the cute kiddo's coming to the door to say Trick or Treat, and hopefully this year my own cute kiddo's doing it too so we can start a tradition of "Mommy gets first pick of the candy". ;D I'm not sure what connection there is to Christianity though, much like Valentine's Day or Mother's Day or Father's Day; just because a person is Christian it doesn't mean they can't recognize or celebrate other holidays.

I'm a believer in celebrating any and every holiday so long as you and your family enjoy it. I'm not Irish but we do St Patrick's Day, and I'm not Mexican but we do Cinco de Mayo. And I don't believe for even a milisecond that some mysterious force is watching every move we make and taking note of whether or not we participated in Halloween. Chill out. Just enjoy some fun with your family. Side: It's just a holiday

Christianity incorporated elements of paganism, such as Halloween, under the early Roman Catholic church. If one truly believes in Christianity then they should abandon the elements of the religion that are pagan in nature (and there are many). Side: It's more of an unholyday
