"Real Christians wouldn't do that."

Hah. Jack Chick commits the "No True Scotsman" fallacy.

Logical fallacies are like Pokemon to Jack Chick. Gotta commit 'em all!

(Rimstalker reflects that this is the second joke he's made in the past week involving allusions to Pokemon, and weeps)

Now, for the commentary:

On the one hand, It's good to see Jack stick to the classics with a "call every non-Muslim an infidel" stereotype, but he wussed out in the beginning with a placating "don't randomly beat the crap out of Muslims, they're not all terrorists" message. And the tract came out hopelessly, and tastefully, late. I'm really dissapointed here. Chick couldn't commit himself to going full bore into the mindless hate and biggotry we know and love him for. I feel cheated. I'd ask for my money back, if I had payed anything for this.

I give this one two bombed abortion clinics out of five, because at least the casual passerby with a shred of decency only looking at the cover page will be properly shocked and mortified before going any further.

That Bob guy is creepy. There's something inhuman about his eyes.

Perhaps that's the plan - freak people out sufficiently about Bob and they'll start to think that they may actually need some kind of salvation.

*shiver*

I agree. This is a wimp of a tract. It's a letdown after the last one he wrote, "Fallen."

Oh, and Rimstalker... that was just dorky enough to be very, very funny. :notworthy

Okay.

"God" and "Allah" are one and the fucking same. "Allah" is just Arabic for God.

Sorry for the coarse language, but it pisses me off when people get something this simple wrong.

Muslims (and probably Christians, come to that) who know about their religions know this. Sadly for Jack Chick, he's as thick as shit.

Oh well. C'est la vie, as they say. Another heap of nonsense from the cartoon man.

Also: it is my sincere belief that men with pencilly moustaches and slicked-back dark hair are evil. Old cinema tells me so.

Bob looks like Rupert Pupkin.

his tract truly dissapoints me.

Noone dies and goes to hell!
It just doesn't illustrate the hatred that is so important to fundamentalist Christianity.

For truly invigorating Chick reading, I suggest you read:

The Accident {Where God burning people in Hell is compared to a stain on a carpet}

Flight 147 {The tract that actually helped push me over the edge and reject Christianity! Missionaries who fed starving Africans for 50 years go to the Lake of Fire, while a newly released murderer goes to Heaven. Classic!}

The Last Generation {Just bizzare, one world gummint' black helicopter shit}

Angels {Christian rock is really Satanic. A manager named Lew Sifer, and a song that has the lyrics, "we're gonna rock rock rock, rock for the rock! Priceless!}

Soul Brother. {can you believe they're still passing this tract out? Blaxploitation goes fundy, with massive Afros, bell bottoms, and a character who actually calls someone a "jive turkey"! Righteous!}

Any tract where the Hell bound sinner is shown a Heavenly videotape of all his screwups, suggesting that God'll get his jollies out of rubbing his nose in it.

Chick is slipping on this one, though.

I agree. WHo can forget such classics as "Doom Town" with this lovely image:
