Harry blows his “last chance” at salvation, and then we don’t see him wake up in Hell with the demons gloating over it?! Just “He was executed four hours later.”
Chick is slipping!
How the fuck did he get chick.com?
Is there an accurate count of how many actual chick tracts their are? I’m thinking they would be a nice gift for my brother. What are the chances of getting a complete set?
Sure, you’ll blame the fact that you weren’t alllowed a demon. But I’ll think it had much more to do with the overconsumption of beets.
Because beets are far more evil than any demon could hope to be.
The beet fairy will leave a bowl of borsch under your pillow tonight.
My one regret everytime I read one of these great Chick Tract threads is that we all rack up hits on his website.
Harry never had a chance. Anybody who looks that much like Alfred E. Neuman is going to come to a bad end.
Well he does need the hits so that he can continue his good work.
It’s sad really, Ol’ Jack has been slipping into a mediocre incoherance over the last year or so. Yet the paranoia that usually accompanies some dementia hasn’t been allowed to flower. I really miss that.
Jack needs to go whole hog on whatever boogeymen are still hiding in his cobweb encrusted attic. Before he finally meets the great faceless man on the toilet, in the sky he needs to really give us a full incoheriant rant. I want to be spellbound before he goes.
I’m still fixated on the “fairy” on the title page. He has no connection to the rest of the story, except that it has “fairy” in the title. Apparently the urge to draw a gay caricature was so overwhelming that Chick couldn’t help shitting on his own tract.
And is it necessary that little Harry be driven to commit murder by his parents’ deception about Santa? Has this ever happened in the known history of the universe? Wouldn’t it have sufficed for him to reject God because of their deception and get in trouble later as a result?
This tract is stupid!
Now that’s a band name!
Well, it’s not like we’re spending money, we’re just sucking up bandwidth.
There’s a list here. – I think you can order a complete set at a discount price, or read them all online.
Isn’t that kind of redundunt when talking about a Chick tract? 
I see the posting of Chick tracts on the SDMB as a kind of “Why We Fight” in the battle against ignorance.
I don’t know, this one is fairly incoherent. I’d also love to see somebody in reality pull it off. It is saying that Islam is a false religion because it focuses on a moon god, and Mohammad has swindled millions. My biggest problem is that the usually cite-happy Chick does not back up any of his claims about Islam except with one book, that is available through his own publisher. A little inside job, hmm? :dubious:
Oh, and I’d like to echo Brain Glutton’s disappointment at not seeing Harry in Hell. It’s unsatisfying. It’s like soft-core porn where they don’t show the guy come.
Not the psychotic murder part but there are those who believe that if you told a “lie” to your kids about Santa Claus, then Jesus might seem a lie later to them, too.
My fundementalist sister is one of these.
Personally, I feel bit guilty telling tooth fairy/Santa/etc stories to my kids. I do feel like a liar at times. I know it’s supposed to be part of the “magic” of being a kid but I’m pretty sure we’ve done such a good job that’ll hurt their feelings when the truth is revealed.
And did Harry’s father remarry? Even allowing for the different hairstyle, the mother being interviewed there is not the mother who appears in the rest of the story.
Again?
Damnit!
And I just laundered what I hoped would be the final load for a while.
I really think Chick as a point there, because it really is true, from my atheist perspective. The only difference is that parents mostly believe the stories about Jesus (although plenty of non-believer parents send their kids to church because church is “good for them”), but don’t believe the stories about Santa. If you lie to your kids about Santa, how exactly can you expect them to logically differentiate Santa and Jesus?
Yeah, so, except the murderer part.
Egad, it’s like Jerk vs. Jerk! What kind of jagoff ugly American would go around muttering things like that at a mosque in a Muslim country anyway? Is it wrong of me to wish the Muslim had just whipped out a scimitar and gone to town on that porn-stached square and his scowly kid?
Ok, it looks like some of you are missing the point. Santa is not Jesus. The Easter Bunny is. C’mon, Chickie even had the Easter Bunny show up at the church on Easter to confuse little Harry.
