Easter and Halloween could be the same holiday. Who decided that Easter is more important than any other holiday, or like Halloween? Shouldn't people who worship the devil get a day off? What about those anti-Christ postal workers. Don't they deserve to have a holiday off to pay tribute to their own "ruler"?
Ok- so maybe not because they are evil, but again, according to whom?
In comparing Christianity to Satanism is actually quite similar if you think about it. Many of the rituals associated with Halloween are the same for Easter.
At Halloween, you get to dress up as someone or something else.
At Easter, you get to dress up in a new outfit to show off at church.
Both holidays involve copious amounts of candy.
Halloween revolves around scary jack-o-laterns.
Easter revolves around scary bunny rabbits.
Halloween pays tribute to a debatable fictional character. So does Easter.
Each holiday falls around the turn of a season. Halloween from fall to winter, Easter from winter to spring.
Both birth controversy.
the list goes on...
So while to story behind Halloween is full of skeletons and darkness, while Easter is full of flowers and chirpy birds, in this classless land of the free, shouldn't the same respect be given to the dead as much as we celebrate the dead that have risen?
I think Halloween and Easter were initially created in order for the sane humans left in this world to bring it on back to simplicity. Meaning, this world is reflected as a ying and yang, black and white, evil and good. These two holidays are yet another indication of the infinite connectivity of the universe. And that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Happy Haunting.
