What happened to Halloween?

 

I may be opening up a can of worms, but it would not be the first time! (((What a Tangled Web We Weave!)))

 

Our schools (may be your schools too) have changed the Halloween Party to a “Harvest Festival”.  

You know that all those years growing up “Halloween” has really just corrupted me for life!  

 

I understand that this is a “politically correct” (or in-correct) thing to do (is it really a Church and State issue?). We have to be sensitive to others…yada yada yada…  

How many people know the origins of Halloween? 

Well, I did not know the origins so I looked it up. Here is a link, it is very interesting.

  The History of Halloween  

So are there really that many people that even know the “All Saints Day” has anything to do with Halloween?  

I say let our kids be kids and have some fun.  

Next thing they will be changing the “Valentines Day” to “Friendship Afternoon” and ok, now I am getting ridiculous!

Oh, wait, they are going after Valentines Day too…. St. Valentine… But that is a different story!  

HARVEST FESTIVAL vs HALLOWEEN…GIVE ME A BREAK!!!
