This article reeks of bias and foolishness. Sacrificing 1/3 of their children??? Come on, that is totally anti-pagan propaganda. You'd think that Jack Chick wrote this article...

History or Mythology?

Is this article intended as actual history or just as a description of mythological texts? Because it seems to be presenting itself as fact, I'm especially concerned with statements like this...
"On Samhain (November 1)parents sacrificed one third of their children to him in exchange for milk, corn, the fertility of cattle and a fertile growing season. The god horrified many because of his terrible demands. It was often dangerous to worship him because the worshipers themselves often died in the act."
Are we meant to take this as historical fact or just what medieval monks thought about it?
Because it sounds to me like another piece of Medieval Christian, anti-pagan propaganda.
