How...I do recognize myself in Carla's stages, too. However, even today I have to admit that I am quite bothered by some of the things that take place on and around Halloween. An article in our newspaper the week of Halloween touted a "Christian Wiccan". The kids and I had a good discussion about that one! <BR/><BR/>As a parent, the thought of my kids getting that much candy sends shivers down my spine, anyway! <BR/><BR/>We have also been enjoying learning more about the Reformation each year in late October, too.ramonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07983248736335145137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33237905.post-1161613387040990752006-10-23T09:23:00.000-05:002006-10-23T09:23:00.000-05:00To: anonymous jones - The point I hope to make wit...To: anonymous jones - The point I hope to make with my post is that we cannot and must not become legalistic in how we respond, or expect others to respond, to something that is clearly an area of freedom.<BR/><BR/>Your examples of attending "seances" and "Wiccan church" are extreme points far outside the context of my post.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16388126339087271102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33237905.post-1161581046019930462006-10-23T00:24:00.000-05:002006-10-23T00:24:00.000-05:00I'm in Australia so we don't do the Halloween thin...I'm in Australia so we don't do the Halloween thing. But isn't it all about evil spirits and witches and spooky stuff? As an observer, it doesn't seem to me that people who say they are Christian should involve themselves with that sort of thing - do you go to seances? Do you fellowship with the local Wiccan church?<BR/><BR/> Never discount what other people see you do.anonymous joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08384203258583004548noreply@blogger.com
