Halloween is a type of celebration that is foreign to our tradition but has immense value and should be continued. The cult of the dead is part of our history: it is a time when hope for eternity is born. It is a time when the Lord makes us understand that life is more than just this earthly existence.

And so it would come as no surprise if data were to emerge about other planets being inhabited by other people; this would not affect the message of the Bible in any way.

Halloween è un tipo di festa estranea alla nostra tradizione che ha valori immensi e che deve essere continuata. Quello dei defunti è un culto della nostra storia: è il momento in cui si apre la speranza per l' eternità. Un momento in cui il Signore ci fa comprendere che la vita è più ampia di quella terrena.
