HAPPY HALLOWEEN
It used to be, when most of us were growing up, the worst we had to fear was some bully (older kid) steeling our candy and running off with it. I'm afraid times have changed to the degree that this is the least of our worries these days. I’m not sure telling your kids "not to go trick-or-treating" is the right thing to do though. It’s like setting out a huge buffet of candy and ice cream for hundreds
of kids and then saying: "Everyone can help themselves - except you". It
hardly makes them want to say "Thank you Jesus" does it? When my kids were trick or treat age, (not very long ago) I found a few alternatives. Between now and Halloween, keep your eyes open and read the church marquee’s. Many churches now days have what is called "Trunk or Treat". It is where allot of Christian’s get together and line their cars along side of each other, (usually in a Church parking lot) with the trunks filled with candy. You can go from church to Church and your kids will make out like bandits from just one of them. It’s allot less walking for both you and your children and they are less likely to receive apples with razor blades, poison candy etc... If you can’t find one, why not go to your local church and "start one". Then have them advertise it on their marquee between now and Halloween. Your kids might even have more fun handing out candy, than they would receiving it. Also, you can take your kids to neighbors and relatives houses. You can even pay for the candy that they give to them. (This way, they get only the candy they really like and allot of it - McDonalds certificates are good too) Whatever you decide to do, make sure your kids are being watched on that evening. It is a day that celebrates evil. Remember, it doesn’t take hundreds of evil people to ruin your life on that night, "just one". On a more serious note, if you need to find out more about evil, demons and demon possession, watch for my article "Demons and Demon Possession" coming soon.

No
doubt Halloween has become more questionable throughout the years. These
days more than ever, Halloween is to Wiccan’s and Satanist’s what Christmas
is to Christians. It "is" their BIG holiday.
