Please, let's not go there! That kind of a comment has no place here. 
I love Halloween, and feel a little sorry for the British here who didn't have it growing up. Having said that, I think one can only rarely make a kilt work with a costume without making a costume out of the kilt. Jamie's done it magnificently in the photo he posted, but I hope I don't see too many "I'm a Scotsman" costumes this year.

No reason to be mad, he was right. I minored in such things in college. However, it does get close to violating the 'no religious discussions' rule. If you want to be mad, be such only for his mistake of mentioning part of the religion behind it, not for expressing something that is true, and unpopular to certain people.

Actually, the mentioning of the religion part was what made me mad. The truth or falsehood of his statement is not something you should bring up, nor should we debate, as this is a topic that concerns religious traditions.

You really need to find better things to get upset by. Some here are better than others dealing with the R issues. Look at the trouble we went through on one thread to not blurt out what PPD was. But all in all, still not worth getting angry over.
