For an "educational" channel, you all apparently don't know much! We don't "worship" the Saints! We VENERATE them! Big difference! Don't believe me? Look it up!
You got several points wrong in this. Really Simple Science = Lack of Effort Into Researching the History behind the Celtic festival, the Christian feast, and the Secular Holiday.
finally someone putting the REAL facts about this out there where people may actually listen to it! Did you know Jack-o-Lanterns were originally not carved from pumpkins but other types of squash, and they were placed outside of peoples doors to protects their homes from the spirits! I love Celtic holidays!
@eragon153468 Samhain means Summers End in Old Irish, they didn't have a November back then so it was the end of summer and start of the new year, not November.
All holidays have become so commercialized, they honor nothing but the retailer & whole saler, the meaning of the day has been lost to the collection of the almighty dollar.
@sporeodst, Demons aren't real, sure believe in God, but for the love of God don't believe in Demons. It's not a demonic holiday it's a holiday to worship the dead. The Pagans aren't witches or demons or evil people. Pagans back in the day are simply the original hippie, they worshiped mother nature! It's all the same! It's all "god"! Read some more please. Start looking into some unbiased information instead of your parents. Get your own ideologies instead of your parents.
@NabilRU Pagan: any person that doesnt belongs to your religion and/or doesnt chare the same beleaves that you. sharing a bit what you say, get your own beleaves by your own, think by yourself and all is better, use the brain (unfortunatly this doesnt apply for the ancient times when the pope ordered to kill and burn any pagan as eretic and a lot of people was executed)
@sporeodst It's not a demonic holiday you idiot. Do you even know what it was about? It was the Celtic new year and they believed that the boundaries between the worlds was weak at this time of year and that demons and spirits would rise to kill them, so they made masks that looked like demons or monsters so that the actual ones wouldn't harm them. Christian's get hyped up over nothing. Learn about the actual meaning of a thing before ye denounce it.
