James Dobson's website today features a series of tips for parents who want to make Halloween (a reenactment of pagan rituals) a little more Christian. Included in his suggestions:
• Dress your children in costumes that focus on history, pretend or fantasy, rather than on the macabre or occult –– Bible heroes, Abraham Lincoln, the American flag, sailors, cowboys, Indians, ballerinas, princesses, doctors, firefighters.
That's weird. I thought wearing the American flag violated the flag code.
Section 8d: The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker's desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.
So Dobson supports the desecration of the American flag.
