I'm a Christian, and very active in my church. I have nearly 2 year old twins, and I want them to enjoy the festivities of Halloween, without any religious connotations. My pastor is firmly against ANY sort of participation in Halloween activities, and won't even condone a Harvest party. What do you think? Do you think that I can allow and encourage my kids to participate in the dress up, pumpkin carving, and oodles of candy part of Halloween with out making it a religious holiday? I know that for some it IS a religious holiday...but can we participate outside of that? Sort of like how atheists celebrate Christmas outside the religious aspect...
Any advice on HOW to do that??
