 | Not informative on facts on Halloween Oct 7, 2006 |
I would not reccomend this book on Halloween and related elements because of the author's evangelical/fundamentalist Christian bias. What little factual information is presented is done so in a sloppy, haphazard way and he has many factual errors, particularly in the section on symbols.
The author advises "Christian" parents to use " alternatives" to our culture's celebration of Halloween that, while good, are a poor and pathetic imitation. He even suggests bobbing for potatoes instead of apples. Once again the horrendous mistake of calling the peace symbol the "Cross of Nero" when it is in fact a semiphone for " total nuclear disarmanent" by Bertrand Russell.
Areas covered are pathetically light and he makes claims he does not support with factual documentation. | | |  | Sometimes Danger comes in pretty Packages Dec 19, 2005 |
| The best that can be said about this book is that it is a wake up call to parents. As opposed to another reviewer the bible DOES speak about the evil that some of Halloween represents. This book does seem to paint with a rather broad brush. Their are 'some' issues about the beginnings of Halloween that are purely evil. If you have concerns about the foundations please read it. But read with a open mind. | | |  | zero is a better rating Dec 5, 2001 |
| this book is more evil than what it is degrading. the ideas are ludicrous and very much like reading a nazi hate manual. halloween is important because it is good for children to socialize and have fun with other children. let's face the facts, the babble...i mean bible does not say anything against the holiday and people who act on their own accord are against the bible's origional teachings, such as "Judge not, lest ye be judged". So anyone who believes that they are right to write these books, let the fury fall on them by the true God. | | | Write your own review about Halloween Whats A Christian To Do
