I know some people don't care to much for Halloween because it is evil or some crap like that, but should people give bible cartoons to kids trick-or-treating. If kids and their parents wanted to hear how bad Halloween is and blah blah they would go to a church to trick-or-treat. Lets face it kids just what candy.

Well what do you think?

Christmas time was set near the Festival of Lights. Jewish, not pagan. Halloween is on All Saints Day eve, that is its relation to Christianity.

A lot of the major holidays were originally pagan in origin. Halloween, Christmas, Easter. They were all pagan holidays adopted into Christianity. Most likely this was done as a means to convert people.

Halloween isn't Christan...

That doesn't make Halloween itself a Christian holiday though.

Well to tell you the truth its like giving a kid an apple to promote healthiness. They probably aren't going to care much for it unless its covered in caramel.


So we should only care about Bible cartoons that're covered in caramel?

no not exactly, but my point was that most likely the only way your going to be able to give something to kids on Halloween that they will like is if it is, or is related to something sweet that can be consumed....or money.

You can't convert little kids to Christianity through cartoons in their Halloween bag. They'll throw them out because 1) they want candy and 2) they don't know what it is. If people want to convert others they should focus on adults who can decide for themselves. Then again, converting others to a certain religion causes more trouble than it's worth and usually is done through rude means.

Bible cartoons would only be given out at churches, etc. It wouldn't be trying to convert anybody.

But they'd get rather pissed at you when they find out it isn't edible.

80% of converts join a religion before adulthood.

Please learn a little before you post please, everyone knows that Christmas is when Jesus was born, and Easter is when he rose from the dead after opening the gates of heaven. halloween has nothing to do with Christianity tho...

It would be weird if you give a kid any sort of book on Hallowe'en. The strangest things I've ever gotten were expired coupons for Pizza Pizza.

How would you feel if you were walking outide on Hallowe'en, expecting candy on one of the "funnest" holidays of the year, and somebody shoved a book in your face?
