Let me be the first to “congratulate” the inconceivably brilliant JTC
on his latest blurtation barfed forward.
“There Go the Dinosaurs”
Way too many complaints and observations to make before I have to go.
As one “Jack” to another, congratulations to you for a stellar200th published tract.
:rolleyes:
(See chickcomics.com for the counting convention. There have been
quite a few more distinct tracts actually published, but Kurt,
who runs the site, omits variations, foreign language versions,
and a few newer tracts with different titles that are essentially
reruns of old tracts.)
Well, I WILL say for now that “Chimp” includes his old fundie meme about a VAPOR CANOPY that collapses to make a GLOBAL FLOOD happen. :dubious: Of course, the conditions that would make such an OCEAN of water floating above the earth possible would also preclude ANY life on earth. But so what?! Scientific extrapolations are only made by scientists. And they are all unbelieving folks :rolleyes: who don’t trust God, :rolleyes: so don’t listen to them.
More to follow -
(And no, guys, I didn’t look to see whether “Fang” made an appearance.)
So god saved the “dragons” from the flood, but forgot that they needed plenty of 0[sub]2[/sub] in the air? Or was he just being an asshole again with the old bait and switch?
Good point. But here’s something else that didn’t occur to Jack-THE-Chimp.
The Ark settled on a mountain. (Actually it says “in the mountains of Ararat,” but Jack and his fellow fundies rewrite this to say it was Mt. Ararat.) The “dragosaurs” would not have survived the even lower concentration of oxygen at high altitude. Not even long enough to climb down.
JTC makes the general lower concentration of oxygen more-or-less a medium inconvenience, except that they were hunted down by post-deluge humans. Judging by the clothing of the hunters shown he apparently believes that they survived until the Middle Ages. They would still exist today, no doubt, if we folks didn’t find them so tasty. :dubious: (Do you suppose he has a cite about being tasty?)
And besides, it’s a little hard to imagine ANY large land animal descending a mountain slope. Or any contrivance to transport them down.
Finally, notice how Chimp gets mixed up on terminology. He insists that “dinosaur” was a word invented in the 1800’s. But he has some people in the dragon-hunting age use the term.
It’s hard to concede that Hannah-Barbera had it right all along.
And I just find it sad that through our sins we brought the flood upon us that killed all the dinosaurs. And because of that no one will ever enjoy yummy dino-burgers again.
Ya know, it’s kinda funny. I learned here at SDMB that these crude cartoons are actually called “Chick Tracts”. I had always thought (because I mis-heard the title when I was young?) that they were called “Shit Tracts”. :smack:
I didn’t find this at all curious because I have NEVER seen any of these things anywhere EXCEPT in a public restroom!
Booooorrrring. A few panels about the title and the rest the same old same old.
I loved the cracked science and blatent disregard for facts that even a six your old would question but still… the rest was weak… not even a good decent rant or a “from out of the blue” assault on pappa pope. Really…
Have they replaced Jack with the High Speed CHICKOMATIC TM Tract writing machine?
I think Chick is mistaken about something - dragons [dinosaurs] can’t be just regular old critters. Seems to me that they were giant (there are Giants in the Bible!) versions of the dreaded Baphomet Lizard. Obviously The Saviourtm and John the Baptist dispatched the larger ones with their Glory, and left only the smaller spine-dwelling varieties to punish Freemasons (Antichrist).
