> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Wolfian \* > \*\*Russia and Germany? Where is he getting this stuff? Well its nice that Ethopia returned Israel’s Ark and its cool to see the Pope is a Texas fan. \*\* Ezekial 38 specifically mentions Persia. So there’s “the muslim world” I guess. Persia is supposed to be allied with Cush, Put, Gomer, and a number of others. Many scholars believe that Gomer refers to Germanya (the people of the far north) and some even believe Germanya is Magog. But Cush is almost definately Ethiopia and Put translates loosely to “treaty land”, so I’m not sure where ole Jack got Russia. I’m guessing he thinks Russia (being sort of a superpower) is Magog, even though there is absolutely zero evidence to support that reading. At any rate, Jack never seems too concerned with what the passages he cites actually mean so trying to find logic in his interpretations is usually a wild goose chase. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Diogenes the Cynic \* > \*\*He somehow claims to draw it from Ezekiel 38, which is all about the kingdoms of Gog and Magog attacking Israel from the north. \*\* Actually, Gog is a person - the leader of the nation of Magog. “Gog and Magog” is similar to saying “Hitler and Nazi Germany”. Whether Gog is supposed to be a name or a title is a bit in dispute. ---

Gomer? Wouldn;t that mean Israel will be attacked by North Carolina? (since Gomer Pyle came from Mayberry) ---

One last thing. Hey, **Diogenes** , you might get a kick out of this. In Hebrew, Gog is pronounce “Gorr”. The Muslims pronounce it “Joj”. Some have said that the actual name is a combination of the two. George. Hmm, do we know of any leaders of a large nation named George? ---

What’s wrong with the horsemen of the apocalypse? It looks like the pope is in front, followed by Patrick Stewart, some guy wearing earflaps, and possibly a skeleton with some sort of bizarro-fire guy riding with him. So, who’s this guy riding with death, hmmm? Possibly an old… ::tries in vain to stop pun:: _flame?_😛 Horrible, I know. Sorry. ---

Phtt. Just finished reading that lame latest tract. Chick did finally manage to sum up his entire theology in one panel: “It’s payback time.” Nothing about generosity, forgiveness, kindness, nor Christian charity ever appears in his comical stuff. ---

“Damien, there’s something _really_ important you should know!” “OK, Helen…what is it?” “I’m really a _man_.” I’m sorry. This is the first time I’ve seen a Chick Tract, except for ones that used to be at retroCRUSH. ---
