* Luís Alberto Alves
In the days of that festival, most of the young people fell into the trap that lived freedom in its fullness, because they were not bothered by anyone, nor by the police. But when they left, they perceived the trap where they set their feet. Few have been able to return to normal, since heroin addiction cornered the drug addict, leaving him no alternative to escape. And the more you use this substance, it speeds up the end of that life.
I believe that many young people between the ages of 18 and 29 were called grimaces by refusing to attend a party sponsored by darkness. After all there would be performers who were at the peak of success and all around. This is a strategy of the devil: always present your gifts, apparently without any defect. Everything perfect. But it does not reveal the content.
Daniel and his three friends knew that the meat of the animals offered at mealtimes came from sacrifices to the pagan gods in Babylon. The wine, before reaching the glass of the rest of the court, always bathed the altars of the demons worshiped by Nebuchadnezzar and his subjects. It would be the same as eating the sweets dedicated to Cosme and Damião in the month of September, or even the foods dedicated to Iemanjá and other deities of the Afro cults.
But the process is sophisticated. This false joy appears at the holiday parties at most companies, when the drink is released to employees, under the pretext of year-end closure. Someone used by the enemy soon shouts the famous mantra: "It has nothing to do"! Some Christians slip and fall in this mud. If the boss or even directors of that firm are drinking and dancing, why can not the employee do the same?
