H and C--By Richard Sponaugle--United States

H and C

Halloween is about fright
Christmas is about hope

Halloween is about taking
Christmas is about giving

Halloween promotes dark
Christmas promotes light

Halloween is Satanic
Christmas is Angelic

Halloween should be abolished
Christmas should be enhanced
