I have no idea what thread it was -it is several years old, but someone posted a picture of Steve Epley at another AFF members home, sitting on a sofa next to a Christmas tree.

He can speak for himself but I know he is a big time "No Christmas!" guy yet wasn't offended at the pic.

Then what are they celebrating? Santa Claus? And using Jesus as an excuse?

I wasn't implying anybody hear was doing this. I was talking about 95% of American society.

So, does it include pagan holy days and their customs, or not?

The fact that you can apply that verse to anything under the suns means either that verse has no actual meaning, or else it means you didn't answer my question.

lol

A bit of trivia that many may have heard is that the infamous Michael Myers mask was cast from William Shatner.

It is true. They cut out the eyes and painted his face white. My favorite Halloween movies were Halloween 1, 4, and H20

As a kid I always imagined that I was Dr. Loomis.

I always thought that Halloween 2 was the scariest of the bunch, but that may just be from combing a sadistic serial killer with a dark hospital setting. Although Michael Myers should have never come back for Halloween 4 (Halloween 3 should never have been made) since he was thoroughly killed in the 2nd. Shot 6 times at the end of 1 and falling off a balcony, then shot in the head AND doused in flame at the end of 2, which all took place the next day.
