Catholic faithful urged to resist ‘pagan’ Halloween in name of ‘fun’

MANILA Auxiliary Bishop Broderick Pabillo urged the faithful to resist the Halloween culture, which promotes “paganism, commercialism, fear and horror” in the name of “fun.”

In his blogpost, the prelate said: Unfortunately, the celebration of life and holiness is being turned into time of fear, horror and death. This is the Halloween culture that many are unwittingly embracing, as if it is funny and cool.”
