1. Halloween
I hate halloween for 2 reasons, 1. Its not an Australian thing, i think it comes from us watching too much US tv. 2. it glorifies all things not good, halloween is the day before all saints day (hence all hallows eve)its a celebration of death. WE should never celebrate death, its a symptom of sin in the world and we should grieve it. The only way to beat death is by having life in Jesus not by being a vampire or a zombie. I think thats why i hate the vampire craze at the moment, a celebration of death and evil and all things anti God.
2. Melbourne Cup day
I dont like Melbourne cup day because its become a national holiday, its even a public holiday in VIC, why? so we can watch a horse race. Now i'm not anti horses etc but its the celebration of Gambling and the preocupation with all things trivial, fashion, drinking too much and wasting money gambling. There are so any other good things to celebrate - why do we focus on getting drunk and spending money frivolously?
Ok rant over!
