[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go to butler's orchard and then out for ice cream. [/quote]

How is this any less satanic than dressing up as a butterfly and collecting a few pieces of candy?

I get not wanting to participate in the gore or ghost part of Halloween, But for the life of me, I'll never understand projecting your irrational beliefs about trick or treating on a kid. [/quote]

cant speak for muslims or anti satanists, but as a Jew with mixed thoughts on Halloween (we fended it off for a few years aside from costume contests, but finanally gave in to trick or treating) the difference is that one is an acknowledgement of a Saints Day (or pagan  festival if you prefer) even if devoid of the pagan elements - everyone knows you don't go out trick or treating in May, or even in September.

You could go for ice cream any time, and to an orchard whenever apples are in season.

I can accept that fellow shul going Jews go all out for Halloween, but I will never understand the need to put down other people's harmless religious scruples as irrational.  [/quote]
