1. "Satan raises up a leader..."

Wow, if I believed in Satan, I'd be inclined to think that line is true right now. :think:

[NewJeffCT]

2. doesn't their vatican look a bit like the White House?

At least the dome does?

But, the good thing is that I don't see the Pope ruling over Islam any time soon.

[Magrittes Pipe]

3. And it's all my fault.

[Zuni]

5. Damn you. Damn you.

[sui generis]

7. looks like someone's getting "saved"

mouth to tongue resuscitation

[Zuni]

9. Hedges will turn into one of these!

[hyphenate]

4. It's so appalling that the kind of fundie crap

is able to reel in the suckers. I think it's a crime that they can get away with creating such hysteria and having people believe it without any question. Talk about hellfire and brimstone. Sheesh.

[sui generis]

6. Now why on earth would "satan"

be such a bastard to the rest of us? It's almost like he's punishing us on behalf of baby jeebus, kind of like people joking about male rape in prisons as part of the punishment of society. If the baby jeebus wanted to punish you by sticking a pitchfork in your ass and drowning you in a bubbling pool of lava for all eternity, don't you think he'd just go ahead and smite you on his own?

Why are these damn goatherder Chicken That Ate Chicago stories still being trotted out in the 21st century?

Those people are well and truly nuts.

[MindPilot]

8. ummm, if god is the all-loving perfect creator of everything

howcome he couldn't just start by creating his perfect world of white christer conservatives with no sin or sinners? Why this elaborate showdown between "good" and "evil"?

Could it be that all of this god and jaybuz story is a fairy tale?

[deutsey]

14. I've thought for sometime that this is a lot of trouble to go through

when all an omnipotent/omniscient being would have to do is simply come up with a way to show once and for that s/he is GOD.

It wouldn't depend on faith or reading a sacred text or participating in a ritual or belonging to the "correct" denomination or being "saved". It certainly wouldn't rely on people like Chick "interpreting" Revelations for us.

Just a single appearance to the world (if you're all-knowing you can figure what to do, and if you're all-powerful, you can figure out how to do it), during which God says:

"OK, everyone, here I am. GOD. Not stop all this nonsense and start helping me create heavan on earth."

10. One of my personal 'Other Denomination" Chick tracts

Not the BEST anti-Catholic one, but it's pretty close...

11. Wait a minute, this sounds familiar.

"For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, roud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce-breakers, false accusers, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, high-minded" etc.

It sounds an awful lot like today's GOP leadership.... MY GOD, CHICK IS RIGHT, IT'S THE END-TIMES!!!! Flee, flee!!!

12. Hey, one of the four horseman looks an awful lot like the Pope.

[Zuni]

13. I am sure that was very much intended

Jack T Chick thinks the pope is the whore of babylon

[Fenris]

15. Funny, 'cause I think the same about Jack T. Chick.

[sniffa]

16. beware the beast, man
