Q3 Blog #10

This blog post was supposed to be about holidays. So I decided to blog about a hilarious Onion podcast I watched, that I downloaded from itunes. It was four people discussing the meaning of Halloween. They were all very disappointed about how many Americans had lost sight of what it was really about, which is of course protecting virgin souls from demonic spirits. I though it was a very funny and very clever joke on when people talk about America loosing sight of the meaning of Christmas. I thought it was funny because both were originally pagan holidays but because of Christianity ties to Christmas people care when we change the meaning of Christmas, but no one cares about the meaning of Halloween. honestly I enjoy what Halloween and Christmas have become, because they fit right into my purpose for them, which is to have fun and relax. It really bugs me when people complain about the meaning of Christmas being lost in the marketing machine and then go out and buy tons of presents. I mean the hypocrisy is astounding.
