My favorite Halloween story is from third grade, when I was innocently gathering coins for one-world government…

Knock on door.

“Trick or Treat for Unicef!”

A shining example of Man at His Best — beer gut, don’t recall whether he was wearing a wifebeater — gives me a harsh stare.

“Don’t you know that money goes to Communist children?”

@homofascist: I hereby nominate this for Comment of the Year. I haven't laughed so hard in weeks. As hee-larious as this whole screed is, due to the fact that there are people just as stupid as she is out there who fancy themselves "Satanists", none of my cats have been allowed outside for 2 weeks, and the solid black one has been confined to the house since Sept 30. Kittehs will celebrate the Feast of All Saints (a/k/a All Hallows, Kimberley, you moran) tomorrow with tuna in the garden.

@al2o3cr: As Manchu points out (and I considered when RML sent the tip), the Halloween devil-worship trope is nothing new. But this is such a thorough example of the genre, I couldn't resist. Even Pagans will pick up a few pointers.

Maybe it’s just me, but it is a sad commentary on the present state of hyperreligious wingnuttery if I don’t find this that remarkable? I mean, it’s not a huge conceptual jump from dressing like the devil to worshipping the devil – at least not relative to the folks who somehow get from HCR to worshipping the devil…

@ManchuCandidate: Will you take her writhing and shrieking praises to Jesus on the altar of her father's church for Stinque.TV ? FCS

@Benedick: It is funny, much much after the fact. @FlyingChainSaw: Surprisingly, she still is.

@SanFranLefty: @chicago bureau: Credit to RML for the cartoon as well; he flagged me about it a week or two back.

@ManchuCandidate: Wow, if she had keys to the church, you had an even chance of pestorking her on the altar. She still available?
