“I believe what Jesus said because Muhammed never rose from the dead.”
Classic Chick persuasiveness. :rolleyes:
I like the portrait of Yassir Arafat too. Nothing like a gratuitous shot at Arafat.

I hate to agree with Chick, but in his defense, the Bible is banned in some Islamic states- Saudi Arabia for one.
That was the most depressing tract.
No it isn’t.
Christian proselytizing is forbidden but not Bibles per se.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha
Fucking hilarious.
Check out the frame right before the earth-shattering KA BLAM!
Poor Waylon Jennings, wrong place, wrong time.
Bibles aren’t officially banned here but will cause a hassle with customs if they see and recognize it.
Lots of hassles at customs with religious items. The Buddhists and Hindus catch it the worst. Buddhists get hassled for their little pendants and Hindus catch it for their pictures of cows and the like.

Is that Michael Moore to the right of Abdullah when he gets blown up?
Am I the only one thinking of Chick walking in to work and saying “Fundamentalism is in danger of growing stale. I’m taking it to strange new places…” Barney in the B Sharps-style?
he he.
The bigoted cretin.
I thought it was Fidel Castro.
Looks a bit like Steven Spielberg to me.
Also the man in the lower left corner of that frame; I’m sure he died in another earlier tract (and was, of course, cast into the flames).
I think the dog’s name is Fang, which makes it Soupy Sales’ pet.
Nope, doesn’t make sense to me, either.
I have seen the light.
See, the Islamic fundies are wrong, despite the Koran telling them that infidels are wrong, because the Christian fundies say Muslims are wrong, because it says so in the Bible. Oh, and all Muslims are terrorists.
It makes so much sense! Thank you Mr Chick!

I have to say that I’m just a tad miffed. This is, what, Chick’s 4th anti-Muslims tract, yet gay folks only get bupkes! Oh sure, there used to be two, but The Gay Blade went out of print and now we have just lame old Doom Town.
Hey, Jack Chick gay people are scary! Woooga booga booga! Damn, we’re on TV, gay marriage is being seriously discussed–what more do we have to do to get noticed by you?
Isn’t pitting Chick a bit like stealing candy from a baby, kicking a man while he’s down, fighting your way out of a wet paper bag, or falling off a log? I used to find Chick tracts to be contemptable but now I can’t help but laugh at them. I may not be the first to say it but here it goes, HAW HAW HAW.

I’m not laughing.
While I’ve heard of Chick tracts on the boards, this is the first one I’ve ever actually seen, and it’s really upsetting.
I knew there were people who hated Muslims out there, but I’ve never seen such deliberate, poisonous unmitigated hatred in my life. The depictions of Muslims with evil, twisted features were actually quite disturbing.
I know that people like Chick are so bound to their racism and bigotry that they will never come to see Muslims as human beings, but I can’t help wishing that he can see some of the goodness and kindness that I’ve seen and come to change his views. not likely to happen in this lifetime, I know…
God, that is really, really horrible
But you’ll live forever in archived infamy! I don’t see what you’re complaining about. There ain’t much of his artwork depicting atheists (Big Daddy?, sure, but nothing else directly). I feel undervalued and unloved.
Of course, there isn’t any tract which speaks directly to you, gobear. Unless he has one hidden away for gay atheists.
Still, Catholics have the best ones with their “death cookie”. I want me a whole jar full of them vittles!
Is it just me or is he becoming a better cartoonist?
His sense of pacing and perspective is coming into focus here. Not unlike Wendy Pini’s Elfquest he’s using camera location to bring a cinematic drama to the tracts.
Chick hates everybody who doesn’t believe exactly as he does. Muslims are merely one of the groups. It’s easier to laugh at him than to let him upset us.
Bibliovore, I’ll grant that that is one of his more nasty spewings of bullshit, but the point about Chick is that he’s always a hateful bastard. He portrays pretty much all those who disagree with him as twisted caricatures. Which is why it’s convention to put threads about him straight in the pit. Have a look around his site and look at the other tosh he writes - the best response to that sort of hate is to laugh at it.
