1.0 out of 5 stars DISGUSTING!!!, October 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Halloween and Satanism (Paperback)

Ignorance is a man's worst enemy. I have been brought up with no particular religion (therefore my opinion is unbiased), - AND I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH in this area. Halloween (Samhain) does stem from pre-Christian pagan beliefs and it is meant to be a very spiritual, compassionate and loving holiday, where the dead are honoured and remembered and the new is welcome: death and renewal. Satan doesn't even existin Pagan beliefs - so I don't know where this info. was obtained. This Pagan festival is about sprites playing tricks on human kind in a playful kind of way. Oct. 31 is believed to be a time when boundaries dissolve and the worlds begin to merge between living and dead. This is also a Festival about the year's death & new year beginnning. Death in the Old Religion (Paganism) implied rebirth. This is a Festival of the Returning Dead & thus has its reputation for ghostly happenings. --ALL THIS FROM RESEARCHING THE SUBJECT - HMMM someone obviously hasn't done their homework and is trying to pull one over on unsuspecting victims. Who would do such a thing? This book is as revolting as the witch hunts of the 13th-17th centuries. Haven't we progressed any over the last 700 years? People need to research for themselves & learn more about our entire history and the truth.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ignorance, September 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Halloween and Satanism (Paperback)

Amazing that freedom of speech allows for the perpetuation of ignorance. Is there a book by this author that says the haulocost never happened too? Who is the publisher? I know I won't be purchasing any of their publications from this day forth. Educate yourselves you web literates don't remain ignorant for the rest of your lives. Always remember, don't believe everthing you read. It's obvious christian propaganda.

1.0 out of 5 stars One of the most dreadfully researched pieces of trash I've s, September 23, 1999

This man obviously hasn't a clue as to the ancient practices of the Celts, now does he know how to go about researching them. But what can you expect from someone who considers the Care Bears Satanic. He spends WAY too much time pushing his own agenda and not nearly enough time doing legitimate scholarly research, if he even knows how, which I sincerely doubt!
