Now notice a few things...besides being blatantly anti-reason, note the teacher is a Ms. hence one of those evil FEMINISTS!

I could tear this apart, but I leave the steaming carcass for you out there...

1. That's a new one!!! My mom's been into these 30 or so years.
They were all over the house - she would slip them in books at bookstores and in with the food at grocery stores.

Some are worse than that one.:puke:

2. "You go to HELL, Charlie Connors!" - one of my favorites!
Actually, the best Chick Tract was the Cthulhu-themed tract parody, entitled "Who Will Be Eaten First?" It featured a ravening octopoid creature from beyond the gulfs of space-time on the cover.

Sadly, it got pulled after threats of legal action.

4. His illustrations of the road to hell are also brilliant
In the Chick classic "The Long Trip", his drawings feature confused WASPs stumbling along in a crowd of Hindus, Moslems, Buddhist monks and caricatures of Jews that might as well have come from "Der Sturmer".

6. Jack Chick is insane.
He was like Fred Phelps long before Phelps slithered out from under a rock.

Anti-Jew, anti-gay, anti-Catholic, etc.

14. My brother is a youth minister at a borderline evangelical church
They aren't total Fundies, they have their share...

Anyway, he is an Everquest player, and when a lot of the parents heard that he was...and then saw the JRR Tolkien books on his shelf they tried to petition for his dismissal at the church.

Everytime they get a new pastor, the same parents lobby the preacher. Some have left.


Ahhhh...Orange County....leave your reason at the door!
