Because of its innocence and frailty, a tiny child is viewed by these satanists as the perfect sacrifice to their master. The infant is seen as representative of the Christ child, and it is He whom they are blaspheming. The night of Halloween another child, as well as an adult female, will be slaughtered. Not all satanist groups participate in activities of this kind, but some certainly do. Halloween is thus a day in which virtually everything that God has called an abomination is glorified.
Christians have no business participating in that at any time, much less in the name of fun.
There are any number of creative alternatives that can be provided for children on Halloween without participating in the ancient religious traditions of the witches and the satanists. Parents or churches could hold parties and have kids come as Bible heroes. Some families view the occasion as a witnessing opportunity and hand out gospel tracts with the treats. Christian parents can also make a difference in the way schools attended by their children celebrate Halloween. One thing that Halloween should NOT be for the Christian is a time of fear.
