It’s of course your right not to participate, but thaf doesn’t change the social and cultural aspects of the question.

Society has to come to grips with death, and Halloween, properly used, can be a useful part of that process IF the Christians show up to inform it. If we withdraw in scorn, the matter goes to the materialists and others by default.

They can have it. Every year it grows more and more insignificant and irrelevant...thats how important the “social and cultural” aspects are. It has nothing to do with people becoming acclimatized or familiar with death. Its bunk.
