    Haunted Houses may seem like fun but take a moment to think of what these are imitating. Haunted houses frequently contain imagery of demons, torture, monsters, etc.. What kind of parent thinks this is ok? Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.

      Oh dear. Probably the kind of parents who prefer teaching their children that bogeymen don't exist. The real danger usually comes from things that are made of flesh and blood and pretend to be harmless.

        Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Proverbs 9:10 Fear of the LORD is the foundation of wisdom....

              You do see the irony in preaching to people who spend all day thinking about all kinds of things which may be true or false?

                I wonder if Tarsky or Kripke would agree. In any case it's also the case that Lies are Lies no matter how old you are. In fact it's generally true that 'X' is 'X' no matter how old you are for all values of 'X'. :-D

                  I understand your viewpoint and agree with the Scripture passage. I disagree with your application in this case. I saw a family come together and spend quite a bit of time together to put on a free show for the neighborhood. I think those kids are going to have very fond memories of their time scaring adults and being delightfully silly. What I saw is a whole lot of pure, lovely, and admirable in what these people were doing. I've been a Christian most of my 45 years. I'm getting tired of other Christians bashing the efforts of others all the time. I don't expect the world to produce perfection (and frankly, it don't expect that from me either) - I'll applaud the excellent and led the bad slide.

                                    Yea that tautology isn't helping your argument. Ok, so truth is truth, what of it? You proved nothing.

                                        Sorry but quoting facts from the bible is not religion any more than quoting facts such as gravity makes me a scientist or posting the weather report makes me a meteorologist...

                                        Errmmm, yes it is and just for your information there are no facts in the bible. A nice narrative maybe, but no more!

                                        Science is not disallowed here, but rather encouraged. So I've given the troll enough fodder for today and shall forthwith stop. Have a nice sojourn here on CP as long as it will last. Bye, bye!

                                          You do see the irony in preaching to people who spend all day thinking about all kinds of things which may be true or false?

                                          I'll admit, the irony is lost on me.
