Ugh...leave it to the South to cause a stir about Halloween on a Sunday. :shakehead

Personally, I think people should reschedule their holy Sundays to Monday so that Halloween can be fully enjoyed without nagging religion. I mean afterall, Hallloween only comes once a year. But Holy Sundays plague us every week.

So then by her saying She is admitting she is letting her granddaughter celebrate the Devil then.

Who actually celbrates the Devil on Halloween? All you do is get friggin candy.

Its like who really celbrates Jesus' birthday on Christmas, or Death on Easter.

certain Holidays have unreligious meanings now, and some people cant get over that.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

The way I see it. Halloween is not a holiday that is celebrated for the "evil spirits" or whatever else one might say. Its a day for candy and costumes. That's all. Therefor, it doesn't matter that it is on a Sunday, for me. Although, it makes more sense to go out on Saturday anyway.

stupid religious people...

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

That's bull****. Stupid hicks. :distress:

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Haha. And what are their kids learning? That it's bad to celebrate Halloween on Sundays. The vicious cycle continues. It's like a closed system down there.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

I like how they don't have a problem celebrating the devil on a saturday.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Well if you have seen FULL METAL JACKET they sing Happy Birthday to Jesus on christmas.

"It's a day for the good Lord, not for the devil," said Barbara Braswell

Man, I wouldn't give my name out in an article like this. Her house is SO getting egged and or toilet papered.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Yes, she's soooo dumb.

I wish i lived near her.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Hey, how can you blame them? Five years ago when halloween was last on a sunday the world ended.

Remember that?

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Oh yeah, how could we forget. There was all that burning and the devil himself made a cameo. But then he realized that Halloween wasn't about him. Then he got mad at all the peole who tricked him into thinking it was, so he damned them to hell for being so ignorant. :)

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Yeah, thats what i find hilarious.

Halloween is for celebrating all the saints on one day. In guessing Hallo was at one time "Halo" and ween was....uh...anyways.

I hate people like this woman, making everything a religious issue.

Do they not understand that Halloween is when Spirits supposedly walk the Earth and the reason for dressing up is so that they won't know you're not one of them.

I mean... Right?

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

No, it (OCT 31st) is the eve of all saints, it IS all souls day.

November 1st is all saints day.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Wow, these people have way too much time on their hands.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

Didnt we burn them all?

Or like....why cant we burn them now? My tater farm has been mysteriously vanishing, and im guessin its witches.

Re: Halloween on Sunday Troubles Some Southerners
 

To burn someone who is different is to burn one's own heart. We are all one under the sun, please be a kind and caring human.
