A special Trick and (several) Treats from Brother Matthew Paul... on the REAL DEAL of Halloween.
Drop your all of your preconceptions before listening, cuz I bet this is not at all what you expect to hear.
Especially coming from a “Religious Brother” of Catholicism.
From the history of trick or treating and dressing in costumes, to the merging of many holidays into a harvest filled bounty of celebration that many folks may know, Brother Matthew Paul talks druids, Wicca, Catholicism, and The Order of The Bards, Ovates, & Druids. He shares his own Dominican order’s reverent practice of honoring their families and ancestors, but especially their dead. Learn the truth about Samhain, Neopaganism, Purgatory, All Souls’, Guy Fawkes - from Saints to Satan, Brother Matthew Paul leaves no caldron untipped (or pumpkin Un carved) in this fantastic expose of a really wonderful holiday!
As always, friends, things are precisely what you make of them.
Boo!
