A Washington dad who went viral for his explosive tirade after finding Christian pamphlets in his son’s trick-or-treat bag has now wildly accused his neighbors of “grooming” his children.
The unidentified middle-aged dad unloaded on the Bellevue family after finding the religious literature in the bag – while his young son simply watched on from the car, the video, originally shared by the journalist Jonathan Choe, shows.
The dad hurled expletives and flipped off the family in his rant – which has been viewed more than 129,000 times since it was shared on Nov. 1.
While admitting to feeling a bit of a “jack—,” he admitted he was furious at the family for appearing to impose their faith on others.
EXCLUSIVE: A Bellevue Christian family is still recovering after a foul-mouthed Jesus hater went on a profanity laced tirade on Halloween night.
Witnesses say the man exploded with rage after his son received a Bible tract inside a trick-or-treat goodie bag.

“I do not need people proselytizing on a holiday that is supposed to be about kids getting candy,” he told the Mail in a written statement.
“My kids brought it to me and they were upset that they got it. It felt very wrong on so many levels,” he added, while admitting his outburst was “irrational.”
He claimed the family was “inticing [sic] children with bags of candy and then telling them Jesus is the truth. It felt very ‘grooming’ to me.”
The dad’s kid wasn’t just handed a bag of sweet treats. Inside, there was a yellow pamphlet featuring a pumpkin with the phrase “Jesus loves you so much.”
There was also a note which spoke of sin, how Jesus died to “pay the penalty” for sins, and a salvation prayer.
The back of the pamphlet featured a Bible verse from John 3:16 – “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
The dad went scorched earth outside the family’s home where he rubbished their beliefs.
Mocking the crucifixion, he blasted, “F—ing fictitious God in the sky and you’re giving that s–t away to kids.”
“Go worship your Christ, he died for your sins.”
The dad was widely slammed over his outburst – with X users saying the episode could’ve been avoided if he put the literature in the trash.
