because it's anti-Catholic and encourages yobbos to go around begging for money and lighting fires.

To to mention the fact that people, even children are having FUN. Which should of course be banned.

It's anti one particular cataholic. And he was a terrorist.

I believe the Lewes Pope burning thing is one particular Pope and not just any old Pope.

A quicker way to hell

I went to s catholic school and bonfire night was never discouraged. I could quite happily do without Halloween though.

Yanbu. Lets ban everything that is remotely fun or enjoyable for families. Why should anyone have any fun in their lives? Life is about working and surviving each day, not stupid Americanised "holidays". Stupid people.

FWIW, in quite a number of rural parishes in Ireland, bonfire night is in June, around midsummer's night, I think it's been claimed in the name of the feast day of Sts Peter and Paul?

Should be banned, in any case.

Burning witches is not an American invention: it was popular on the Continent. Except in Spain where they burnt heretics.

Oh yes, dicso Jesus is ace.

You get a lot of this sort of "art" on the Landover Baptist Church Forum. That's an interesting one, the premise being that the forum members are all massive trolls and set up to provoke outrage from hapless newbies.
