Denis,
I'm glad someone finally realized that! If you dress up and go to a party
then you are celebrating Halloween, regardless of what you call the party.
The difference is that you are not celebrating the satanic practices but are
simply having a good time with friends - just as "most" kids who
trick-or-treat are only in it for the candy - not for the evil. If going
door-to-door is wrong then so is having a "Hallelujah" party - since the only
reason it's being done at the time its being done is because it's Halloween!

I don't see to much difference in dressing up for a "church party" or a
"decent neighborhood" party.
In reality we would be hippocrites to attend the church function that Looks
like halloween, and then look down on everyone else.
