My father and grandfather are (or were, in the case of my grandfather) 33rd degree Masons. Strange that they never offered the chance to join the Lodge to me. I wonder what that means?
(Though if my dad’s a Satanist, it would be the coolest thing he’s ever done in his life. Gotta wonder why he’s such a jerk, though.)
No freakin’ Scientology tract, yet. If Chick don’t cough one up soon, I’m soooooo going to send 'em another nasty email.
He’s built like a brick…
Can’t wait!
Was “shacking” in the white version of this tract? Or is it a stereotypically “black sin”, kind of like shooting dice, jive talking, and drinking malt liquor?
Isn’t that baphomet lizard thing also called a Jesus Lizard?
Also, in “Who loves you” it seems like that angel is protecting the lady with the shopping bag more than the enraged looking dude.
I thought it was that little rug you put by the tub to prevent slippage when you get out.
Don’t blame the Colorado Grand Lodge. I think you need to roll at least a 15 on the d20 to get the cool lizard, and if you want to progress to the 32nd degree, you’d better start racking up those experience points, Mister Charisma 3!
Do they still have experience points and Charisma scores? I haven’t played in decades.
That really happens. It’s not the only thing that gets bigger.
Yeah, that came out of left field, didn’t it? I wonder if it was a hold over from the other “Moon Goddess” tracts.
I like the “and then something sinister happened.” Since Mason ceremonies are secret, they must be sinister, right? HAW HAW HAW!!
Really, the God of Masonry? WTF?
Is it me, or does Frank (evil Masonic recruter) look kinda like George Lucas?
I could really use The God of Masonry right now…
I’m intending to get a hot tub, so I need a brick deck built in my back yard. If I join the Masons, do I get the 40% off as well?
Ok, it is me, but where does the attack on Islam come from? It’s like a random panel taken from another tract.
Apparently, some Masons (Shriners, maybe?) take oaths on the Kuran and call Allah “the God of the universe”. At least, according to Chick they do. But hey, he has a cite: Masonry: Beyond the Light, pages 209-210.
Juts in case you don’t know, the Masons are not allowed to ask someone to join. You have to ask them.
No, the Jesus Christ Lizard is a Basilisk.
Baphomet, like most evil things, is from Australia.
I feel much better. Lately, I’ve been … unsatisfied by Chick Tracts, as if Jack has been phoning them in. But I think he is really back with his head in the game with The Unwelcome Guest.
The whole exorcism thing was great, and out of left field. I thought Larry was going to get a boring lecture, but instead, there was an actual casting out of spirits – and the fact that it was sort of low-key made it more special, and frankly, very touching.
I have to say I felt a solid connection with Larry when he says “Make him leave, Lord” – I know that I have experienced that exact same thing when my boss was in my office recently droning on and on about some budget policy thing when all I wanted was for him to shut up and leave so I could get on with the mindless tasks that make up my work day. So I rolled my eyes really hard and thought “Make him leave, Lord” and you know what – he DID leave after about 45 minutes, so there!
“YAAAH! @!!!**! I hate you all!” is very nearly as good as “HAW HAW HAW.”
More seriously, I was shocked by the quality of the artwork in Who Loves You? – it’s crazy how much better it is than in the original tract (I guess for non-black people). I can also report that “shacking” is apparently the same sin for persons of all races.
I prefer the God of Iron and Coal, so I can build the Iron Works.
Yep. As we all know, religious tolerance is basically Satan worship in disguise.
I particularly like how in panel 21 the guy specifically tells the priest to fuck off, but the priest just keeps on trying to save the guy.
Kindly leave the stage.
