@rev.dr_sc.williams: The history of Halloween and its Christian roots. I find it funny that churches will refuse to celebrate halloween and put in place a fall festival which is far more pagan than halloween is #deconstruction #intellectuallyhonestchristianity #Halloween #exvangelical #progressivechristianity
Demonizing everything cannot be psychologically healthy lol

Even if they look to it being a pagan holiday, there is no devil in paganism.

I'm Pagan and I started following you to better understand my Christian neighbour, thank you for the respectful account of my faith's practices! He and I definitely hold some differences in our beliefs and world views, but we've found a commonality in the values of our faiths that have fostered a genuine curiosity and respect for eachother's religions - those commonalities being a focus on doing more good than harm, protecting those who cannot protect themselves, uplifting those who are struggling, and helping any person or animal in need to the best of our abilities.
People get so focused on what makes religions different that they forget to remember what unifies them.

Sir I appreciate your education to others but Samhain is also MORE then changing of the seasons it's Also Irish New Year's bringing in the Harvest to prepare for "death "of Light and make sure there is food for ALL

I grew up Catholic and always got to celebrate Halloween, I now live in the rural South where it’s predominantly Baptist and cannot escape the Halloween is Evil mindset.

Dia de los muertos is about celebrating those we've loved & lost. Halloween is not about celebrating zombies the way it's advertised

I don't know why people can't just take it at face value. The kids have fun, isn't that enough?

I was taught by Irish nuns in the Texas Panhandle. (How in the world did this happen?) The nuns threw a great Halloween festival where we wore our costumes. Kids trick or treated everywhere. We remembered our saints and went to early mass on All Souls Day in a sugar coma. My birthday is Oct. 27th and I loved the entire week, still do.

I grew up in intersect Protestant school because the Baptist admins just couldn’t sustain the school with Baptists alone. Anyways, every Halloween parents would battle it out over whether or not Halloween was satanic. ☠️

Hostility towards Halloween feels like anti Irish immigrant and puritanical propaganda

Growing up catholic I NEVER understood why my non catholic, Christian friends looked at me crazy for being excited for Halloween. As a kid I always thought, “Did I miss something about Halloween being bad during mass?” [Tears of joy]

As a recovering Catholic, they wear robes and use incense with candles and chanting. Bringing a tree inside to celebrate reminds me of Yule. Is Catholicism Pagen?

Interesting how Christianity took feasts that were Pagan and gave them a spin to make it acceptable.

My church hands out candy in the community during Halloween and members of the congregation join in to help. This year we’re handing out candy through a giant Frankenstein face and I’m so stoked

As a woman raised in and evangelical Christian church disguised as "non-denominational" I appreciate your takes. I follow you and Dan both. My relationship with God is tenuous at best, but I can't quite reach the idea that I believe in nothing.
