Navigating roundabouts is tricky business when you've decided that the "superior" view a telescope affords is the only image to drive by.

A pumpkin lantern is actually an entity which supposedly scares away evil spirits whilst lighting the good path, so it's baffling (beyond given naivety and immaturity) as to why one who implies knowing God would wish to go smashing them.
Usually people who do understand God, don't tend to run around smashing anything, but instead curb their contempt for some things in the world and lead by calm example, because they know ultimately that they only curse themselves.
The Old Testament is Old. It was rectified by the New for the benefit of those who were (and are) still transfixed on 'curses' which are actually acts of self condemnation, scapegoated to 'God'.
The world isn't meant to be perfect. It isn't all meant to go our way. The game is not a game without a challenge and a game is not championed by smashing up the pieces.
We take charge of ourselves, lest we lose from the outset.

You're trippn if you think the old testament is just old and shouldn't be followed anymore....
In this life we're given 2 options to choose from. True or false. Life or death. The force or the darkside... The old testament or the new testament. The old ways or the new world order... YHWH, the God/Creator of the universe or Man, the rebellious "son".
Saying the old testament laws are done away with is like saying the Creator and God of this universe doesn't know what he's talking about and only made those laws up for shits and giggles.
Anyone who loves evil and to do evil will always find excuses for it to be ok. Simple as that. And everytime someone sins there will always be consequences in the world, whether it be slavery, war, natural disasters etc.
People find it so hard to come to terms that yes, life on this earth can be ALL ABOUT BLISS AND PEACE. But it's never going to get there as long as you mope around thinking waaaaaaaahhh we'll never be perfect blah blah blah i'm a piece of shit and nothings gunna change...
Quote:
Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers giveth you.
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
Quote:
40 Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, FOR EVER.

One of the commandments is to honor thy parents.... If you think Christ honored YHWH you're deluded... He came and changed up the commandments... absolved sins that werent supposed to be absolved. Pretty much let evil run amuck.
Saying the old testament laws are done away with is like saying it's ok to be adulterous now, it's ok to steal now, it's ok to kill now, it's ok to covet now etc.
Moreover, if you really think the EVERLASTING covenants are done away with than you should be prepared for another world flood. But that won't happen because YHWH made an EVERLASTING COVENANT.
Quote:
And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

A pumpkin may seem harmless but think about the whole concept....
You're engraving a pumpkin to look like someones face, which is forbidden.... You put a "light" in there attracting moths to a flame....
People come to this pumpkin and give regard and praise to it. They ring a doorbell and get "candy".
If this isn't some kind of idol worship practice I don't know what is.
Yeah I love Halloween as I've been raised with it but really it's a weird ass holiday and I haven't gone trick or treating since like 17, and that was only because my gf at the time wanted to go. You get candy wow big whoop.
There are a shit ton of better holidays I could think up then this.

I'm beginning to think pumpkin smashing is perhaps the ideal therapy for you.
