Chick tracts aren't fun anymore
Witness the new tract, "Crazy Wolf."

Jack attacks Native American religions this time around.

1. Setting aside the bigotry, it looks like Jack is claiming that magic and curses are real things
He'll for sure burn in hell for that heresy...

Also, that lovingly-rendered bunny about 8 panels in made me :rofl:

3. If Crazy Wolf is out of his body,
why does he pound on her door to get in? I take it Jack doesn't know much about such things as OBEs either ;)

4. I love how the Virgin Mary gets lumped in...
...with cults and nature spirits at the end. Guess Chick don't want no womenfolk muscling in on Jebus' action.

6. Rather weird
Because we all know how intolerant Native Americans are of Christians. :wtf:

But yeah, for the simpletons these are aimed at, the satan manifestations must be considered real, and his black magic a true threat, otherwise, what's the point of believing in Jebus?

Love how the neighbor lady felt the need to hire Crazy Wolf to get rid of the Christian woman, but had no problem shooting Crazy Wolf himself.

I guess after several hundred of these, he's scraping the bottom of the barrel. Sort of like http://www.superdickery.com

7. Their fixation on Satan would be amusing if it weren't so sad.
I believe in God, but I don't remember having to believe in the Devil.

9. Jack Chick obviously doesn't think the Trail of Tears was hardcore enough.

10. It pisses me off that they are still around
I have a whole bunch that I had saved (heheh) from the 70s-80s thinking that for SURE one day they'd be a rare collector's item.

But noooooo, those stupid things have been around all this time.

14. First edition Chick tracts are apparently in demand at comic conventions
Oh, check this out: http://foo.ca/wp/chick-tract-satire/

Lots and lots of satirical Chick tracts I hadn't seen before.

Same old Jack.
