Please tell me I missed the thread on this. I can’t believe this level of ignorance just slipped by > **[Chick.com: Global Warming](https://www.chick.com/products/tract?stk=1075)** > > Many claim excessive heat buildup will destroy the earth. They're right, but it's not coming the way they expect. ---

Jack Chick pretty much denies all of reality, so I can’t say I’m terribly surprised. I mean if you can hold one thing in his favor, it’s that he is a true equal-opportunity slanderer/bullshiteer. ---

The guy who went on a shooting rampage at WPIC in Pittsburgh last Thursday was named John Shick. Coincidence? I think not. ---

He totally skipped mentioning the [Muslamic Ray Guns](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIPD8qHhtVU) and [Ass Sandwiches](http://images.encyclopediadramatica.ch/6/6d/Sandwich-orig-shop.gif) (NSFW language) though :(. Edit: Oh, and he thought overpopulation was a problem? I guess he doesn’t want non-Christians to have sex at all… ---

Isn’t is so much fun to get all worked up over a sad little man who otherwise completely fails to impact your life except by that you go looking for him? ---

> [@Chimera](#): > > Isn’t is so much fun to get all worked up over a sad little man who otherwise completely fails to impact your life except by that you go looking for him? Well, considering that this board is about fighting ignorance, and Chick tracts are dedicated to generating and spreading ignorance, I’d say, yeah it is. Sorry to hear that fighting ignorance is not your idea of fun. ---

Purely out of a desire to fight my ignorance as well as a bit of idle curiosity, I clicked on the link that has Jack’s bio and was astounded to read that > [@](#): > > Copies of Chick tracts are even displayed in the Smithsonian Institute as an integral part of American culture. I have been to the Smithsonian but never saw these and I stopped my Goggle search after 10 pages of looking. Has anyone seen or heard about this ?
