Halloween and the world

I was reading my regular blogs and bulletins from people I know.

I came across this snippet today:

I can't stand these people who get so upset at Halloween. They think it's all about the devil and witches and goblins and bad things. That it teaches the kids all the wrong morals. Bull-cockey! All the kids want to do is dress up, hang around their friends for a couple of hours, put on a mask and pretend to be someone else! Is that so bad? I argue that it is not. Why? Because the people who don't like Halloween do the exact same thing on Sunday mornings... dress up, hang around their friends for a couple of hours, put on a mask and pretend to be someone else. Oh Snap! Danny's got point there!!!

How do we speak to this in a loving and Christlike manner? Is this what the lost of our world truly think of us?
