Halloween

My objections to Halloween are not theological.  I don't have a problem with dressing up as witches/monsters/vampires etc.  It's just a laugh.
My objections to Halloween are social.  In what other context would it be acceptable for children (and sometimes adults) to approach the houses of complete strangers, knock persistently and aggressively on the door, and expect to be given sweets? It's incredibly rude when you think about it.  I object to this.
