[Fire Walk With Me]

1. Each of the characters depicted easily win my complete trust and love.

There's just something trustable and lovable about each and every one of them.

2. God God

And Mr. Chick thinks his version of Christianity is superior? There is a word that takes us past irony, not sure what it is, but it probably means the same thing as crazy

edit; So I go to the site, haven't been there before, and dude is ripping up the good old JW's (Not my favorites but hey which one is?)

More irony;

"The danger of dependency in an unhealthy spiritual, emotional and physical environment opens the door to control and abuse. The individual's entire sense of what reality is will be re-defined by what he feels and needs: acceptance and fulfillment. In the case of the Watchtower organization, Jehovah's Witnesses need their Father and Mother for validation, how and what to think, emotionally feel and behave because their sense of reality has changed. Is it really safe to entrust emotional, physical and spiritual health to an organization who keeps the identity of the Watchtower writers from the public eye who claims to be the Witnesses' Mother?"

Ok, I'm convinced. A evolution denier who thinks his view of the bible is better than Catholics, JW's, AND Mormons. And who knows who else.

This is religious insanity in a particularly noxious way. Eww.

4. Father O'Tool?

:spray: :rofl:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

6. I knew a Father O'Tool

My father almost got into a fist fight with him once right in front of the Church.

5. NB to Mr. Chick...

The church predates the Bible and the latter is actually a product of the former. Of course that church was neither Protestant not Roman Catholic, but a Roman Orthodox church based in Constantinople that does not seem to exist any more.

Anyway, his irrational belief in the Bible has no better basis in fact than Roman Catholicism's irrational belief in the holiness of the pope.

7. Looks like our pal Jimmy (the beatnik) has taken one too many bong hits

No wonder he's so confused.

8. I'll take St. Augustine over Jack Chick any day of the week

:eyes:

and I guess Jack Chick thinks denying the body and blood in communion is bibical. :eyes:

[Lost in CT]

9. Do they celebrate Halloween in Belfast? Cause that would be perfect.

:evilgrin:

10. Holy shit! Did you read this?

It's from the website under "Witnessing Ideas"

"My husband is a minister who does evangelistic work, but I am shy. I am active in my church but I wanted so much to witness to non-Christians...
I have been leaving Chick tracts everywhere! I leave them on shelves in the grocery store and drug stores, on phone booths, on newspaper boxes, in restaurants, in public restrooms, at the doctor's office. I made special trips to the local health department, WIC clinic, homeless health clinic...just to leave tracts. Even the food stamp office and Dept. of Human Services waiting rooms. The public library. Outside the high school in a bad neighborhood. I wrap them in plastic and toss them in driveways! I scan the local section of our paper for people convicted of DUI or other crimes and mail the tracts! If people did this in every town, so many could be reached. Oh yes, I send SOMEBODY LOVES ME to abortion clinics."

I guess a tract is the perfect response to any form of human misery.

11. So that's about $100 a month she spends on tossing paper that'll end up in the garbage

Wouldn't it be nicer if she just donated that $100 to a foodbank instead

:crazy:

[Left Is Write]

14. Well, you know how those people with DUIs and who go to school in bad neighborhoods

NEED Chick Tracts. I'm sure they need them more than food.

[SacredCow]

12. The fundamentalist vs Catholic fight is epic....

I grew up Catholic, but attended a fundie-run private school for 3 years.

And Mom and Dad wonder why I'm agnostic/atheist....

[rug]

13. Chick's an amateur compared to GD.

[SoxFan]

17. LOL

Sadly, you are correct.

[HamdenRice]

15. Trance music he explains well. Catholicism, not so well. nt

16. St. Thomas Aquinas vs. Wilson from "Home Improvement"
