Anyone who doesn't see the satanism in the ghosts, the haunted houses, the superstitions associated with black cats and the gruesome masks connected with Halloween is blinding themselves to the need to stay away from this holiday.
True Christians stay away from Halloween and alll other pagan obsevances.

Those have nothing to do with Satan, except from the perspective of your own religion, and even then, they are loose. Fail.
Yeah, cuz it's not like it could be a remnant of pre-Christian beliefs, or anything like that . . .
Hey, if you don't want to celebrate Halloween, you may as well not celebrate Christmas. Or Easter.
Halloween is my favorite holiday. I have always had Halloween parties, one in the afternoon for the kids in the neighborhood and one in evening for adults.
The last couple of years I have had a great haunted house in my garage for the kids that come trick or treating(instead of a party) All my kids and their friends help. My husband is good with electronics and he hooks up some great stuff. We have a blast.
Satan is a Christian diety and they can keep him.
I hope all the true Christians stay away from me on Halloween, they bring down the party!
Stay away from my black cat or you will be decomposing flotsam in the river 200 feet away.
EDIT: Egyptian civilization worshipped cats and thrived for 5000 years. In the dark ages, cats were tortured and killed because they were considered to be the consorts of witches and the devil. This was immediately followed by the bubonic plague which killed off one third of the European population. Don't fuck with cats!

Oh noes a blak cat!
"the haunted houses"
Actually, haunted houses are one of my favorite parts about Halloween. Universal has always made some fantastic haunts with amazing theming and well-trained scare-actors. I've been a <a href=http://www.halloweenhorrornights.com/orlando/index.html >Halloween Horror Nights</a> fanboy since I first heard about it back in 2004. I'm trying to get some tickets for the first weekend this year.
(warning: link may make fundie heads asplode)
Anyways, horrible rant is horrible.
Personally, I just ordered some siffy new Halloween decorations.
I also sold a bunch of witchcraft books.
I wonder, then, if I am just confused?
Actually...
My parents are rabid christians, but when my siblings and I were children, they enjoyed Halloween as much as we did. My dad loved taking us trick or treating and my mom loved to "inspect" our candy hauls. You must be the kind of christian who is completely miserable and expects everyone be completely miserable too.
Go fuck yourself.
Halloween
= Hallow eve
= The night before all saints day
Anyway I have 3 black cats and a black dog, what's your point?
Of course there are some rules to black cat ownership

I'm bored, and feel like posting LOLCATS for a while.
Besides Christmas and Easter, true Christians should stay away from all other pagan traditions, including: worshiping a demigod born of a virgin, anything to do with a savior who is hung from a tree and/or rises after three days, strongmen who slay lions with their bare hands, apocalyptic floods, fiery chariots, the divine nature of the number three, prophecy, marriage, prayer, theories of an afterlife, and blessings of any kind. Oh yeah, and rings are off limits. Pagans like the symbolism of the circle, plus the Bible says jewelry is bad. Oh, and I think crosses are also symbolic of certain unspeakable pagan traditions, so true Christians had better stay away from those, too.
Children dressed in Spiderman, Drakula and Harry Potter fancy dresses asking for treat or tricking are not satanic to me, SORRY. Besides, I don't believe neither in Ghots, nor haunted houses and I think that black cats are.............cats.
Oh, I forgot, it's the beginning of the holiday season. First we get to hear them whine about satanic Halloween for two months, then we get to hear them whine about how we're taking christ out of Christmas for two months. One big looooong excrutiating whinefest from September-December.
No, True Christians avoid computers, the internet and all things electrical or electronic. Don't you know Electra is a character from Greek Mythology? Every time you post something you are honoring false gods!
Jesus ain't gonna be pleased with you!
Superstition=/= organised worship of Satan.
Holiday based on superstition/old religion =/= serious belief in same.
BTW "superstition about black cats" isn't even universal; in US a black cat crossing your path is bad, in UK it's good.
Nice to see a contradiction outside the bible for a change, eh?
It's September and here we go again with the Halloween fright! gosh, I thought I was early getting ready for candy day!
I'm trying to make a Master Blaster costume for my husband and my 2 yr old! *yeah*
If only that were true, but I hear the fundies are handing out their religious bullshit in candy bags full of razors telling them to kill their parents..
..hey, why cant I demonize them every now and then like they always do to us.
Pagan observances, huh? Guess you'd better stop sleeping...that's acting out their belief in death and rebirth. Better stop showering because Pagans believe in cleansing. Better yet, stop breathing, Pagans use breath in their meditations.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
