““so there is no difference” … “I happen to think there is a difference””
Im sorry if that wasnt clear.
I do think that there is a difference.
and even if there isnt a difference (As you claim you believe) then it is stil ok.
“I asked you to please explain what the halachic/hashkafic differences are between giving Christmas presents and giving Halloween candy bo b’yom.”
sure. Christmas celebrates the day they believe their “savior” was born. A person in whose name milions upon milions of our ancestors were killed/tortured over millenia both directly oand indirectly. I think t is inappropriate to in any way commemorate that day, even if technicality muttar beleis breira.
I agree celebrating Halloween is assur
discussion as has been pointed out to you . In spite of the headline
do you really not see the difference between the two?
