Jack Chick's New Tract

Only single-parent families would be so stupid as to teach their kids evolution. If there were a Dad in this family, things would be different!

:D

Funny you should say that, though. When I was a toddler, asking the inevitable questions about where we all came from, my dad told me how we'd evolved, and we all 'came from monkeys'. I spent the next few weeks peering into prams looking for a baby that hadn't changed yet and was still a monkey...

Is everybody seeing the trend to point a racism finger at atheism when ever they can.
I mean nearly every time a “thumper” says the word evolution they shove in the racism charge. Were all the people in the confederacy atheists, the bible has been use to justify those practices for centuries, It’s science that revealed that all people are the same.

You're not the only one. Did you also notice that despite his pastice of racist thought he's still using a depiction of satan than borrows heavily from dark ages jewish stereotypes.

Why the hell is the mother gardening and taking the time to teach her son? Why isn't she out killing and stealing?

Top Ten Reasons Why The Hell The Mother Is Gardening And Taking The Time To Teach Her Son Rather Than Going Out Killing And Stealing:

10) Not quite evolved enough

9) Everybody dead for a 10 mile radius already

8) Killing and Stealing are on days that begin with an S or a T. Fridays are for sex with animals.

7) She and sonny will go out later so she can teach him killing and stealing herself.

6) Enslaved teacher has the day off.

5) More interested in aiding the self-engodification of her son.

4) Mesmerized by her son's googly hyp-mo-tizin' eyes.

3) Mellow from contemplating the chimps she evolved from.

2) Experimenting with cross-breeding willow trees and Venus fly traps.


And the number one Reason Why The Hell The Mother Is Gardening And Taking The Time To Teach Her Son Rather Than Going Out Killing And Stealing:

1) Sloth
 
Purely from the craft perspective, Chick tracts are pretty good, especially considering that they're given away for free. But is Jack Chick really one man, and the one man that writes and draws all the tracts? Is this a pseudonym for a group of authors? The drawing style seems pretty different from one comic to the next. Is the real Jack Chick already dead and cryogenically frozen, quietly awaiting the rapture?

I've thought this, too. Fundamentalism, bigotry, strawmen and alleged racism aside, they are very well-drawn.

Not only that, but good storytelling, good timing, good drama. Characterisation and dialogue, however, leave something to be desired! Also, sometimes the flow of the speech balloons requires more effort than it should.

No. The point is that evolution has nothing to do with morals, and you're stupid if you think the only reason you don't kick cats or rape babies is because InvisiSkyDaddy gave you a moral compass.

I don't kick cats or rape babies.






I do it the other way around.

That's disgusting. I like cats. And I like rubber gloves. My fondest memories are times spent alone with a cat and a pair of rubber gloves.

God loves unconditionally. He loves Satan, who is stuck in Hell. (They have this falling out thing, and love can't be forced. ) He loves Satan so much he doesn't want him to be lonely. So, he provides for Satan to have company with like minded people who can't stand God.

Oh absolutely. Besides, would you really want to get stuck in Heaven for all eternity, with all the bible bangers, creationists, homophobes, fanatics, and suicide bombers as your only company? There'd be nothing to do but sing hymns and kiss God's ass all day long, and you certainly wouldn't be allowed to do anything fun (because if it feels good, it's a sin).

Hell is where the real party is going to be. All the cool people; the scientists, philosophers, skeptics, and thinkers, are going to be there. I hear they have built-in air conditioning in the atheist section of hell, because that's what I believe.

I like the last panel, where Chick at least admits the god he worships is going to throw billions into the lake of fire, if for no other reason than they believe we evolved.

Yet he still thinks we should worship this thug.

that's not what they believe. it is ok to believe in evolution as long as you belive that jesus died for your sins; this is how so many of them can justify anything else they do or believe. once they are thusly 'saved', it doesn't matter what they do or believe - they go to heaven.

I just got the Flock of Dodos on DVD from my local library. I will be watching it today. I put in a request for it a couple of months back to get it and they got it in 28 copies for the library system here in Broward County Library.

I wondered why you'd brag about getting a DVD of a particular 80s band until I reread your post...oops. :boxedin:
