David Warren says,
"The over-celebration of Halloween is part of the re-paganization of our culture. I won’t moan about it, only note it. All Hallows’ Eve was formerly the shadow of an important event in the Christian year: the Feast of All Saints. And that was not a celebration of ghosts, witches, and goblins. If my reader can be reminded that today is All Saints, my purpose in writing is already fulfilled."
If you went out last night (Halloween), you know what he means by over-celebration. We all like candy, but shouldn't somebody be saying enough is enough?
Read All Saints, by David Warren, in which he goes a bit deeper,
