Big difference between Satanism and Paganism there, SB.

In any case, the word "Halloween" has it's roots in the Catholic church.

No no...Alex, not Satan....although they are kinda similar.

So are you going to tell your kids the reason why you won't let them dress up when all the other kids are going to be doing so?  It is going to be pretty confusing for them to be told that all their friends at school are satanists.;)

My kids don't need any book-learning. Aside from the good book that is.

Paranoid idiots and ultra-Christians have ruined Halloween.  Neighborhoods used to be filled with kids trick or treating, but now my house is lucky if I get more than 30 kids.  I would walk for miles with my brother, and fill two pillow cases full of candy.  I would hate for my children to never know the thrill of Halloween.

It's a shame people have to ruin such a great treat for kids.

I also miss scaring the piss out of them too.  ;)

Hehe - Halloween's a xian festival started to replace an old celtic festival - Samhain which was probably new year. Same procedure for the other major celtic festivals - Imbolc=Candlemas, Beltane=Easter, Lughnasadh=Lammas/harvest festival and Yule=Xmas.  However, sadly Satan appears to be basically just too Jewish (and Xian) to get a look in at any of these - the celts most likely never heard of him til the Xians turned up.

So in some respects, you'd probably have quite a defensible case claiming that modern Xianity is nothing but Paganism Lite. ;)

Heck - If you think that's a scary thought why not check out the names of the days of the week:
Modern english=Saxon English - translation
Monday=Monandaeg - Moon day
Tuesday=Tiwesdaeg - Tiw's (god of war) day
Wednesday=Wodnesdaeg - Woden's day
Thursday=Thunresdaeg - Thor's day
Friday=Frigedaeg - Frige's day
Saturday=Sæterdaeg - Saturn's day
Sunday=Sunandaeg - Sun day

Ooo scary! - Saxon versions of the Roman calendar gods - which pagan god's day are we celebrating today? Uh-oh! Looks like everyday is Satan's day!
You zealous guys better get started burning your calendars & diaries - don't forget not to let you kids utter those blasphemous heathen names like "Tuesday" too. Well, maybe Sunday & Monday are clean... :D

Actually, weren't the Romans doing something around modern day christmas time?  Saturnalia or something like that?

Yes but small children dressed as uranus became unpopular very quickly from what I understand.

I'll provide a link later.
