you open yourself up to the devil by celebrating Halloween in the same way you open yourself up to the devil by celebrating St. Paddy's or Mardi Gras.
if you play ouija or try voodoo, you open yourself up to the devil. if you dress in a slutty costume or take psychedelics in a cemetery, you open yourself up to the devil.
likewise, if you get wasted on Guinness in downtown Savannah, you open yourself up to the devil.
if you twerk half-naked for plastic beads on Bourbon Street, you open yourself up to the devil.
these kinds of bacchanalia are by no means inherent to the holidays in question, and in fact, are extremely recent perversions of traditions which go back centuries. Centuries of Christian history.
#the notion that Halloween has pagan origins is a MYTH#spread by whiny witch losers who want to carve out some piece of Western culture for their degeneracy#the ex-witches and the ex-atheists who feel personal conviction about Halloween#feel it because they participated in that degeneracy#and for that reason they as individuals probably *should* stay away from Halloween BUT#most Halloween celebrators--particularly if they're cradle Christians--have NEVER experienced that version of Halloween#I certainly never ever have. and we had massive Halloween parties with all our friends. we even party-hopped once#and it was all entirely innocent#same goes for Mardi Gras#their decadence and salacity are the stuff of TV to me.#Halloween#x#Christianity
