Colbert On The War On Halloween: ‘Jesus Was the Original Zombie’

Halloween is an awkward time for some religious folks. Fundamnetalists, in particular, have a hard time embracing the holiday that Pat Robertson calls 'Satan's Night.'

How can allow our children to participate in this ritual, especially when most of that candy is prayed over by witches?

To avoid slipping into the hands of Satan, many religious folks have gravitated towards holier alternatives, such as trunk-or-treat (which honestly sound more like something Ted Bundy might have encouraged), scripture candy, or Jesus Ween. 

Stephen Colbert helps us sort it out on his segment, The War on Halloween.
