THE HOLY HOLIDAY OF Halloween

Anne Johnson over at The Gods Are Bored has pronounced Halloween a Holy Holiday:

Every year around this time, the Christian Wrong starts moaning and groaning about the fact that public schools celebrate Halloween, but they do not celebrate Christmas or Easter or St. Patrick's Day ......... ooops!


... I'll concede to the Christian Wrong that public schools devote an afternoon every year to a Pagan holiday.


My solution to this terrible, monstrous, obscene, unacceptable practice? Simple.


Make October 31 a religious holiday, like December 25.


Wouldn't you love that, Pagans?


Not only would you not have to work on the most holy day of the calendar, you could also expect many, many questions from kids as to why Halloween has suddenly become a day off school! A win-win situation! Think of the parties! The family togetherness! The establishment of traditions, like Halloween brunch!

Bop on over to Anne's place to get the whole wicked cool story.
