(!)School Festival(!)

My son Tony's school has always had a Halloween festival in October. Last year I guess there was pressure from parents that had the school decide it was best if they change the name of the festival from Halloween Festival to Fall Festival. Just myself I didn't think it was necessary to change the name. Halloween has always been one of the really fun days of the year.
But now the school has been pressured to take it even further. We received a notice from the school that the Festival is on Friday the 30th. And they have told us that no "religous" costumes will be allowed starting this year. They then listed what costumes children are not permitted to wear.
Witches
Devils
Demons
Ghosts
God
Religous figures
I don't get it. What harm is it if a child comes to a fun festival day in a ghost costume? Who is hurt by that? It's just fun. Who cares?
What does anyone think about this?
I have a miserable life and wish I were dead!

Don't ever post in a thread of mine again Van. I can't believe you had the gall to post that and your actions could legally be considered a criminal act. You do know that don't you? There are internet harassment laws. This thread has been forwarded and I hope you have a happy holiday seasn Van. I doubt you will . A big surprise is in store for you. Sad life.

According to that all religion is based off the same pagan sun worship, so in effect, it's all the same stuff. No need to be offended.
The most politically correct costume ever would be.
The Grim Reaper. Death just doesn't really give a flying fuck who you are, how much money you make, what race you are blah blah blah .. Equal Opportunity is his motto.
