[quote=Anonymous][quote]Because the religious right have ruined everything. They make the reactionary liberal left rant about gay marriage like braying donkeys and force us to take religion out of every corner of secular society just to balance against the craziness.[/quote] Really? You are going to make this issue a political one? All of the evils of society are a direct result of religious right? I am a devout Christian. I have no problem with Halloween. My kids both celebrated at their (private) schools. They went trick or treating. I have a number of friends who are teachers. They indicate (as have many other posters) that Halloween celebrations became at problem at school when the kids (with the obvious consent of their parents) used the holiday as an excuse to wear overly sexual and/or otherwise inappropriate costumes to school. Everything at the public schools is becoming "sanitized" for a number of reasons and the finger pointing shouldn't just be toward the right. The constant political posters need to limit their narrow one-sided political view of the world to the political forum. [/quote]
