thats unusual. In the tracts, the person usually gets saved before its too late. “His heaveny robe failed to explode”? Try taco bell. ---

Oooh goody! I think I’ll wait a while to read it, though, and savor it in a week or so. The Tuesday before Halloween, someone dropped about a dozen different Tracts at the Salvation Army Store I work for. I couldn’t find out who it was, but it seemed like I was following him/her around-- I’d pass a shelf or a couch and one would be there that wasn’t just a bit before! I got some great ones I’ve been looking for (“Hi There!” and “Bewitched?” especially). My most surreal Chick experience was finding a copy of “Charlie’s Ants” in a French newspaper in Barnes and Noble, when I was 16. I feel bad for those who have never had the good fortune to find these little nuggets of (sometimes shockingly well-drawn) insanity in the course of daily life. ---

I hate you for making me look at that, gonna go flush out my eyes now, thanks… Some people have too much free time. And I don’t really hate you, there’s too much hate already. ---

[http://www.lizardcomics.com/d/20031106.html](http://www.lizardcomics.com/d/20031106.html) Yes, not the same as an actual new Chick Tract denouncing gays yet again, but it sort of is. =) I must say it’s rather on-time. ---

> [@](#): > > ) Seriously, I don’t think you could entice preteens to suicide bombing with the promise of virgins. They probably have some more coercive method of inducing children to do this sort of thing, threatening their family or something. Anybody know? " Psssst, Abdullah, If you blow yourself up we’ll give you a new Xbox." ---

On a more serious note, why hasn’t Chick been arrested for something, possible hate crimes or, at the least, bad cartooning? ---

I’m surprised no-one has mentioned the special appearance of General Burkhalter as Abdulla’s mother. I’ve been wondering where he’s been since Hogan’s Heroes got cancelled. ---

You get 70 beautiful virgins, but the strength and appetite of 100 men to enjoy them? :smack: Isn’t that an awful lot like the old “hot dog vs hot dog bun” packaging dilema? ---

Hate _crime_. No. This is hate _art_. This is perfectly fine for him to do, and us to waste some time on. I was reading Leviticus the other day. Man, you could go seriously Rambo based on that chapter. I’m really pissed about the way some of you eat. :mad: There’s a whole section on leprosy. Clean, unclean, clean, unclean. Burnt offerings, blood, pigs, goats, hooves. Whew! I need a flow chart. ---

Access to this tract is denied by the network filter where I work. It says Category: **Hate Speech**. Says it all, really. ---

_shakes head in utter disbelief_ I can’t believe that there are people in the world like this. Like **Bibliovore** , I’m in total shock as to how someone can totally misrepresent Islam. I’m just in shear shock, I’m totally lost for words. Totally and utterly lost for words… ---

I guess you guys don’t check out the fundy message boards that take Chick as the gospel truth. Under a different user name, I’ve asked people to back up their assertions about Islam with cites and have been called any number of names for demonstrating that not all Muslims are terrorists and that Allah is the God of the Bible. The fundies uniformly know nothing about Islam (can’t quote any of the Qu’ran, don’t tknow the 5 Pillars, and so on), yet when I point out that it is useless to criticize a religion without knowing what it is, the standard response has been, “We only have to know that it is wrong. Don’t promote demon worship.” (meaning Islam.) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ding-ding-ding-new-chick-tract-out-come-get-it-while-its-hot/211221.md?page=3)
