Bible Costumes
Why does my born-again christian friend say it is "evil" to dress my baby up for Halloween?
I have a very good friend who is a born-again christian and attends a bible fellowship church. I have a one year old baby boy and I intend on dressing him up for Halloween and taking him out. I love Halloween and I have a lot of decorations and I love to give out candy and see all the costumes. My friend says I am commiting a great sin before the lord and that the lord sees this as "evil" and that Halloween is satan's holiday and we should not partake in it at all. I say it is just a great day for kids to be kids and have fun. What do you think???
You friend is a judgmental moron. Dressing up for Halloween is a fun thing for kids to do, and it is not a sin. Halloween was originally an Irish pagan holiday that the American greeting card companies took over as an excuse to make money. Back during biblical times there was no Halloween, and if Jesus were alive today he would probably be more concerned with all of the drive-by shooting going on in the hood. It is a sin to to worship the devil or to kill people, not to dress up in funny costumes and eat candy. Let your kid enjoy being a kid. Tell your friend to mind his/her own business!
