Marsh, there are evangelical Christian families who happily dress their kids up as devils for Halloween. This simply isn't about religion; it's about the fact that in a society of 300 million people, even a teeny tiny percentage of crazy people is still a lot of people, and you're bound to run into some of them.


Yeah. There are also a lot of families who quietly choose to dress their kids as angels, pumpkins, or any of the other things that are not in direct conflict with their religion.

Around here there are also large churches which put on "fall harvest festivals" as an alternative to Halloween. Makes it sound even more pagan if you ask me!
