It is fun. It isn't to be policed by Social Justice Warrior's who have no idea what they're talking about. jordanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06025919826570308166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-808355645028585487.post-54054516013288151492013-10-31T11:52:33.415+00:002013-10-31T11:52:33.415+00:00I am aware of the religious tradition surrounding ...I am aware of the religious tradition surrounding Dia de los Muertos and can see how my original comments may be viewed as superficial as I do not mention the religious significance surrounding sugar skulls but rather focus of the aesthetic style of them. As a Catholic myself, All Saints Day and All Souls Day are important days within the Church and so I very much respect the religious integrity of the sugar skull. <br />Dia de los Muertos has become celebrated here more and more and last year we had our first large scale procession through the city and it was fantastic.
