He might. Reformation Day is on the same day and is celebrated to remember the protestant reformation. The reformation's leader, Martin Luther, had the belief that men were saved by faith (which is true), not by works (which is what the Roman Catholic church said). Halloween, however is, in factual terms, a decendant of a pagan holiday, celebrating the dead. We Chritians usually dont really associate anything bad to the holiday and just write it off as a candy holiday, really. However I dont really think Christ Himself would be as flipant... no i dont think he would.
Oh, and even though He's not on this earth now, Jesus IS alive!!

Probably, Christ could be the life of the party. Always handy when you need some more fish and chips or booze.
But he might be busy, since next time we see him on Earth, he's supposed to be handling the whole "End Of The World" thing.

I think it depends.
If you think about it Halloween is technically a Pagan holiday whose roots are in the Pagan traditions. In addition, Halloween is also a celebration of the dead. So, it is possible he could've recognized it in some form...maybe not like we do (obviously).

actually Halloween is a christian holiday!
Many people don't realize this and don't let their kids go trick-or-treating because it is a "demon's" holiday.
It goes way back in time and is quite long to explain but the reason that people dress up is because back then they wanted to scare off evil spirits and stuff so they dressed in scary costumes and masks.
There's alot more detail
but seriously it is not a demon's holiday.

Christ is alive today and no He wouldn't celebrate Halloween.

He would probably be VERY dissapointed of what these fanatic christian freaks have done with his teachings.
They have turned Jesus' teachings into a fanatical crap full of lies, FEAR and more fear, fear of god, of Jesus being the only God....
Jesus was a great master....just like Krishna, Buddha, Lao Tze, even Osho...
I was a christian until I was thirteen, when I realized that all the stupid churches just put FEAR into your life. They want you to live in deep fear and ignorance, that's why I turned into a hooker...jk....

Ha ha. That's a good question, but I don't think so. I don't think it's as evil as some people do, but I can't see Jesus celebrating it.

No, he would be getting a bunch of fallowers, walking on water, and feeding everyone, then break into your house to heal your sick doughter and get arrested for trespassing.
