@maxdog,
Actually, Halloween is synonymous with fun.
My daughter has always loved Halloween because she loves to dress up, she loves make believe, and she loves candy. Several years ago her very religious, Bible believing, cousins started taking her to kid's Bible club. Her mom is somewhat religious and I decided to let her go.
Then came Halloween. I told my daughter that she had to choose because the Bible club wouldn't want her to go. It made me chuckle because Jesus himself tells us we have to "count the cost". She counted the cost and decided that Jesus wasn't for her. To be completely honest I was quite pleased (it would have been hard for me to have a religious daughter.)
Christians are synonymous no fun. (Since then she has learned that Christians are bitter, hateful, cruel and and nationalist.)
