A viewer asks: “November first is “All Saints Day” and the night before is “All Hallows Eve” that has since become Halloween. All Saints Day is supposed to be a day of “remembrance” for all the departed, including saints. But lately, it has become just another dutiful day for the typical Catholic to attend Mass. It will be a remembrance of the exalted nature of the saints as role models for righteous living, but little else. There will be precious little discussion of death itself, the hazards of transition, the dark fate and existence of many earthbound departed loved ones who are assumed to be safe and are not. What was the original intent for these holidays and how has that intent been lost over time?”
