I am pleased to announce the release of a major update to my 1998 article entitled "Halloween: No Room for Compromise!". I had actually been trying to update this article for the past several years; but Halloween would come and go each year, and I still hadn't gotten to it . . . at least until now. This article has now been expanded to a three-part series and is now entitled "Halloween and Samhain: No Room for Compromise". It includes a lot of new Bible verses, new and very informative commentary regarding Samhain -- or Halloween -- better formatting, some spelling corrections, as well as a header image. If you are a Christian parent who has young children, and if you are still sitting on the fence regarding whether or not you should allow your children to go out trick-or-treating this year, please consider reading this updated series. Even if you don't have any children, I would still encourage you to read this series, as it will provide you with a lot of useful information which you can use when discussing Halloween -- or Samhain -- with your family and friends.
To read this updated series, please click on any full blue title link that you see in this message. Thanks, and enjoy!
As is my usual custom, below is a synopsis of the three-part series.
