[...] I'm just not comfortable with what I see as
sensationalizing something as terrible as a jet crash. Some things
shouldn't be taken lightly IMO.

Some people take very seriously the possibility of being doomed to an
eternity of walking the planet as an undead construct, sent neither to
hell
nor heaven. These people are not comfortable with Halloween celebrations
that sensationalize or take lightly that possibility.

Perhaps we should eliminate Halloween altogether, to ensure that we avoid
offending anyone who is uncomfortable with terrible things being
portrayed,
lightly or otherwise.

I think that Kingfish was referring to my post regarding the origin of
Halloween.

Personally, I'd be satisfied if we just spent less on it. IMOH, Halloween
just doesn't justify two months of preparation--for those of us not in the
Carnival biz.
