All Hallows Eve
Well the evening of evil has come and gone yet again. Did you all have a fabulous time? I dressed up as Hunter S. Thomson from "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" and I'm told I did a pretty good job of pulling it off. No pictures unfortunately. But what happened in the worl over this weekend of ghosts and goblins?
First stop: Paris France. If there is one thing that scares me on halloween, it's not ghosts. It's not goblins, witches or headless horsemen. It's also not eggs, toilet paper or razors in candy. And its DEFINITELY not all the naughty nurses that are bouncing around. So what is it you ask? Protesting Christians. That's right folks, almost 10,000 christians gathered in Paris to protest the godlessness of a day when everyone shares candy and jocks can dress like chicks without fearing the label of "homo". Apparently, they "want to show that [they're] not afraid of death. [They] believe in resurrection and want to celebrate life". Well isn't that peachy. Here's an idea you could use that uses that word twice: live and let live assholes.
Second stop: Great Britain. This stop shows us a similar theme but seems to actually attempt to answer it. You see, over in england there are christians who dislike halloween just like the ones in Paris, the difference is, some of them have actually taken to exploring alternatives to the traditional "ghouls and goblins" motif for halloween. Now I'm all for exploring alternatives so I tell you what christians. Why not explore an alternative to believing in Jesus?
Last stop: Athens. No not that Athens, the one in Ohio. It seems that this little university town is known for its halloween riots, but this year it went a little furthur than usual. Theft, rape, and assault was all over the place. One might almost say, hell on earth. See christians, there's nothing to worry about on halloween. We're all just trying to have a good time. Oh wait, never mind.
