People come to your door expecting a handout, give them whatever you want--if you choose to give anything at all! I ran out of candy once and gave out pennies. Honestly, that's even more worthless than biblical cartoons, but the kids liked it  But people aren't asking for a "handout" as in, they're standin at a traffic light askin for money. We must remember that this is about kids and fun and keep things in that spirit. This is not the time for recruiting of any kind. Let kids be kids is my point, and grown folk keep their/our serious and pious/political bullshit to them/ourselves. If just for a few damn hours. I'd agree, assuming the people handing out the religious stuff are advertising that they are open for business on Halloween. Someone made the point that they would only go to a house decorated for Halloween. I agree with this. Those folks should play by the rules & just give out candy (if they believe so strongly, then they should not participate at all, since halloween is basically a pagan holiday). But my basic point is if you knock on any random door and ask for something, don't complain about what you get. My Legacy
