[QUOTE="keista, post: 475764, member: 11965"] Sorry Andy, I don't know where you get your information from, but the origins of Halloween are not evil. They are based on Northern European (attributed to Celics, but other cultures have the same/similar Holiday), pre-Christian practices. Since Halloween was a multifaceted celebration and deeply rooted in ppl's lives and cultures, Christians adopted/adapted to more easily foster conversion. Eventually declaring Nov 1 as "All Saints' Day" to honor Saints and martyrs, making October 31st, "All Hallows Eve" or Halloween for short. [/QUOTE]
