> I found it odd that they did celebrate Christmas, but not so
halloween, since halloween started out as a pagan holiday,  and is not
a Christian holiday.
> So much of Christmas, any more, sadly to say, has little to do with
Christianity, and more to do with greed and commercialism. I like the
old-fashioned touches of Mrs. Weasley's hand-knit sweaters and
homemade fudge.  Also, Ron's statement that Christmas is for family.

It would make more sense for me, if they witches and wizards would
celebrate Walpurgis Night -- a night were witches (and I believe
wizards) would get together and dance around a large bonfire. If
memory serves me right, this would be April 30th. Or does Walpurgis
Night coincide with Halloween?
