(October 31, 2007)--Mexico's Roman Catholic Church is condemning the increasingly popular celebration of Halloween as "damaging and against the faith."
An article on the Web site of the Archdiocese of Mexico warns, "Those who celebrate Halloween are worshiping a culture of death that is the product of a mix of pagan customs."
It adds that Halloween "has been identified with neo-pagans, Satanism and occult worship."
The archdiocese urges Mexican parents to replace trick-or-treating with costume parties in which children dress up as a character from the Bible, and are given a bag of candy with instructions to give away one piece to each of their friends with the words "God loves you."
