How many here claiming Christianity will participate in the pagan ritual of decorating a tree and celebrating the birth of a higher power?

Dont claim to be Christian but i do consider myself a bible student and still learning. Double-standards seems to be the face of lots of these so-called "christians". Some "christians" are silly with there answers. I respect everyone for their beliefs, but how can you hug a day that has spiritism written all over it, then pretend that just dressing up and eating candy is ok, knowing your bible condemns adovacting it's theme.

Me either. But on Oct 31st then theirs the issue. Dont delude yourself to think your not advocating its main theme which is Demonism. I mean im all for it, if people didnt claim to be christians.

Welllllll, since Armageddon is close, and close enough that we can almost taste it; it would be scary to go out. For the demons will be on a rampage looking for who they can devour. The demons will be out in full force looking for an entrance in where they can live, turning into 7 legions and letting all hell break loose!
Be very careful everyone because I don't think the Holy Spirit will indwell in you that night if you enter the gates of the "unknown".
No Holy Spirit, no protection.........

The happenings of Halloween are far different than the rituals that pagans perform on October 31st (samhain). But, they do fall on the same day, thanks to the crusaders.

Well, we are "Lutherish" (half Lutheran, half Jewish) and we celebrate Halloween because it's fun, but we don't view it as a religious holiday.

I won't be celebrating it but not just because it's Pagan but it has a spiritistic and demonic theme.
