The day AFTER Halloween, Nov. 1, is called "Day of the Dead" commemorating all of the little children who've died (The correct name is "Day of the Innocents" or "Dia de los Inocentes." Nov. 2, my birthday is "Day of the Dead" for all adults who've died or "Dia de los Muertos." Latin Americans will have picnics on the graves thinking that on these days they have a better chance of communicating with the deceased.

Can Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate the Fourth of July?

Jehovah's Witnesses can not celebrate the 4th of July because they only celebrate weddings, anniversaries, and religiously-bound holidays (ex.- Christmas). The Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate Christmas. The only holidays they celebrate are what we non-JWs call the Lord's Supper. Jehovah's Witnesses view themselves as "no part of the world", as Jesus did when he was on the earth. (John 17:14) While they are citizens of current governments, and loyally obey the laws of the land when they do not conflict with God's Word the Bible, they do not believe that our salvation will come at the hands of governments of men. Therefore, why celebrate a tradition who's purpose is to promote a government instituted by men? What is more, the 4th of July celebration itself is a tradition celebrating America's "liberation". The holiday is therefore celebrating America as our salvation, whereas Jehovah's Witnesses look to Jesus as their savior.No
