HALLOWEEN ONLINE

The Christian Broadcasting Network offers a "Christian Perspective on Halloween" on its website, titled "Hallowed or Harmful?"

The site gives a history of the Oct. 31 tradition and gives three reasons to examine how you celebrate Halloween.

The site offers a low-key, reasoned approach to celebrating Halloween, which for most youngsters is a harmless opportunity to dress up and get some free candy.

However, parents who are concerned that Halloween can be harmful to their children might want to check out this website which offers alternatives to the traditional Halloween activities.
