Explain. 
I have an older cousin that served several stints in prison and was “saved”. Upon his release about 15 years ago, he had become quite a devoted pastor in the Kansas City area, administering to a smallish congregation, leading community service works, visiting the elderly and providing spiritual guidance. However amazing his recovery, I was sad to see he was stamping Chick Tracts to pass out this Halloween to the trick or treaters. Made me feel so sad.
He has kids that are of trick or treating age. That sucks

I deplore that myself; but maybe he preferred it to doling out what he called “sugary treats.” As you know, Jack Chick opposed Halloween.
This puts me in mind of a quote at the beginning of Chapter 15 of Pudd’nhead Wilson, concerning tolerance of other people’s preferences and habits.
I thought you were going for a reaction; why mention it otherwise?
Were you talking about this one? I remember having a good laugh over it when someone emailed it around years ago, but it’s got nothing to do with any Jewish references.
Because the girl and her family certainly were NOT hard-shell Jack Chick-type Baptists!
I never could see anything Jewish about the professor. No Star of David, no yarmulke, no stereotyped Yiddish expressions. I am hard put to see how Chick was making him out to be Jewish.
Wow! Excellent! You described the attitude of so many of my “Church of Christ” pals so well.
Spot-on analysis!
And they’re pals of yours? Hey, all you have to do now is quote this to them and you won’t have to have them as pals anymore.
Simple, huh?
I knew a guy back in West Texas who believed every word of every Jack Chick tract. He finally stopped pushing them due to our ridicule of him, but I’m sure he believes them to this day.
Save me a place by the fire, Jack.
Yes, I was going to point out the differences in versions, but didn’t get around to it.
There is one fundamentalist fellow who has never had a problem saying when he disagreed with JtC, with whom he had a pleasant ongoing association. He deals in old tracts and has a site which includes variations. I seem to recall another change he pointed out. While he does not “believe” in “macro-evolution” (although he has no problem with great age) he has quite a sense of humor on the subject. In the case of this one tract he points out the irony of an anti-evolution tract going through more than one mutation.
No doubt at some point someone with a lit bit of scientific background pointed out how silly the original tract was on this topic. It essentially said that*** Jesus was the pi meson***, if you had any briefing at all on the strong nuclear force.
So JtC comes back with, essentially:
*Oh, YEAH??? I hear tell that gluons are “just a theory” because no one had observed any!!! *
Did I say “little bit”? He must have had some substantive advice, because this leaps ahead into quark theory. For those of you scratching your heads, the strong nuclear force is considered a “residual” force. The only reason nucleons (protons or neutrons) and mesons (such as the pi mesons) exist at all is that a more fundamental force holds three quarks, or a quark-antiquark pair, together. That force, of course (I can see the light-bulb going on over your head) is mediated by the gluon.
And I came across someone stating, that YES Virginia, gluons HAD been detected. I should have saved that source.
… In any event, JtC just continued to play “G-d of the gaps” and kick the can further along. No big surprise.
How considerate of him to say “G-d.” 
The closest I ever saw to that was a tract in which he claimed that Red China had, and has, an aggressive stance in the Far East so intense that the country is pressuring its neighbors not to ally with the United States; is threatening Japan and India; and eventually plans to invade Australia (one panel showed a map of Australia labeled “NEW CHINA”).
“Aoujou Nambien.”
(Cordwainer Smith’s “Norstrilia” – very strange SF – had China taking over the whole region, including Australia, and Oz became a continent-sized city named Aoujou Nambien. I wish to goodness I knew what that translated to.)
FROM what language?
Well, from context, it would be Chinese. (In the story, he uses the word “Chinesian.”)
Cordwainer Smith – Paul Linebarger – spoke Chinese, and his stories are modeled after Chinese story-telling traditions.
ETA: Smith often used language puns for names. One of his characters was named Sto Odin, which is Russian for “one hundred and one.” Another character was named Panc Ashash, which I believe is Sanskrit (but I don’t recall at this point) for some other number. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Aoujou Nambien was a numerical allusion.
