Only way this could be worse is if the post was talking about putting Jesus in a diaper or thinking the thing he wore on his waist at his crucifixion was a diaper.

Mormons generally don't have a problem with it, from my experience. Congregations often hold a trunk or treat at the church building. I've seen a few individuals that take issue with it, but they've been the exception.I don't know what the Mormon stance is on Halloween,
Same reason they call the Jews "God's chosen people." They don't read the bible, and just accept whatever babble they hear passed along. Most of the biblical references to any form of sorcery are references to Jewish mysticism other than one case I can think of where people were trying to worship old Greek gods while also wanting to be Christians. On the various old pagan traditions, a good rule of thumb is that if it's not being done for some kind of worship of a deity, or spirit, it's just a cultural practice and is pretty much irrelevant.I never understood why so many Protestant fundies hate on Halloween for having syncretic pagan roots, but they usually give Christmas a pass. Christmas is heavily derived from two pagan winter holidays, the Roman Saturnalia and the Germanic Yule, and that's one of the two main holy days in the Christian calendar. A similar case can be made for Easter having syncretic pagan roots, even if the militant atheists tend to over-exaggerate those claims.
That would be the Jehovah's Witnesses, who are pretty weird in their own right, but are very different from your old-school Evangelical Protestant fundies that I was referring to.
Most of the Christian fundamentalists who are against Christmas and Easter are usually "third-party" sects such as the Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh-Day Adventists, the various Armstrong churches, and so on. They also tend to have beliefs that while clearly Christian in nature, are also vastly different from the major sects.
This isn't exactly surprising though since the Puritans hated everything that could be considered fun, even just a little. Actually I think Puritans evolved into modern day Evangelists, which explains pretty much everything.in fact it was banned by the Puritans for a while.





I wished the same of retards making shitty OP's, but looks like it hasn't either.I really figured half of this shit would have died out on the 2000s, but it hasn't.
Oh no it will get much worse. I am looking forward to it.I really figured half of this shit would have died out on the 2000s, but it hasn't.
