Shut the hell up about Jack Chick!!!

I GET IT!!!

I GOT IT BACK BEFORE SPOOFE KILLED OFF BO DIDDLY!!!

Jack Chick is an idiot. Always has been, and barring a brain transplant, always will be. He is a small-minded, hate-filled, walking piece of filth. His ideas are offensive, and the method he uses to spread his unforgiving brand of faith is laughable.

But still:

Why the hell do we have to have a thread seemingly every week rehashing how stupid he is? It’s been done to death. It’s in this thread, and this one, and this one, and this one, and I could keep cutting and pasting links from the Pit until the Rapture.

I GET IT!!!

Everybody gets it. Pointing out Jack Chick’s faults has been done over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over.

WARNING Animal-related cliches ahead.

So can we please stop beating this dead horse?
Jack Chick is clearly a one trick pony, but like every dog, he’s had his day.
Mocking Jack Chick is shooting this fish in a barrel.
So can we just put this dog to sleep?

Please?

Yeah, but every time he releases a new tract, I look forward to the SDMB annotated commentary. It keeps my day entertaining.

Next he’ll be complaining that we talk too much about that Cecil Adams guy.

Who’s Cecil Adams?
::d&r::

A very simple solution would be to just avoid Chick threads. That’s the beauty of this board- any subject (just about) is fair game.

Besides, by knowing one’s enemy, one can defeat that enemy far easier. And if anyone is an enemy to the fight against ignorance, it’s Chick. And it’s good for a laugh.

Hamlet,

Dude…I’m so stoked that you get it. Now, please let the rest of us have some fun.

Jack Chick: never too much of a good thing.

(this is his new unofficial official slogan)

I like the Jack Chick threads. I think we need more of them, not less!

So there.

I’ve noticed an odd fascination with bringing examples of unbelievable idiocy and ignorance to the attention of the boards as a whole, but I don’t see the harm in it. It sometimes makes me laugh.

The reason, I suppose, is the boards’ ulterior mission: fighting ignorance. Chick seems to be the most convenient scapegoat because he seems to embody what the message board is struggling against.

No one is forcing you to read those threads.

I feel sorry for you, with that guy whose holding a gun to your head, forcing you to read the Chick threads. I hope you’re able to sneak away and call the police on him soon.

Ahh, to not have anyone forcing me to read threads is divine.

But it’s fuuuuuuuuuuuuun.

Hehe.

Jack Chick: putting the foam back into fundamentalism.

No, hang on, that can’t be right.

You are a BAD MAN, and will probably go to hell.
Haw!
:wink:

He’s no more an enemy to intelligent people as toe jam is an enemy to the mighty T-Rex.

Yes, I am extremely proud to be a part of a community that fights ignorance. However, in Jack Chick’s case, ignorance has been fought, beaten, chopped up into itty-bitty bits, pureed, roasted in a 1200 degree oven for 35 years, obliterated, reanimated only to be completely anihalated by a death ray, then cruched underfoot, smushed by mortar and pestle, decomposed, and reduced to subatomic particles. Enough may be enough.

And to those who raise the tired old argument that I don’t have to read those threads, rest assured I don’t. But when it takes me 5 minutes of waiting, just to get the “no response from server” box, I get a little frustrated with what eats up the bandwidth. Plus, you’re all going to hell anyway, so there!

So was my paddle ball I got when I was 8. Fun for about 5 minutes. Although I would be lying if I didn’t admit I get a kick out out of the levels of ignorance Chick plunges himself with each tract. I just don’t find the need to rip him apart for the 8,443,478th time.

No probablys about it.

:smiley:

especially with that spelling…

Ooh, a Pit thread that links to one of my threads! Sort of like a SDMB baptism of fire, except maybe more of a baptism of lukewarm water. Anyway, I realize that Jack Chick is seen by most intelligent people to be a total idiot fucknozzle, but the category of “intelligent people” unfortunately does not include, for example, many prominent politicians in the United States who seem to hold similar views to Chick’s. However, this is not to say that dopey little threads such as mine would actually change the opinion of anybody DUMB enough to take Chick seriously. Yet his tracts do have a sort of low-budget bulldada charm: the fact that he has NO DRAWING SKILLS WHATSOEVER (although some of his assistants seem to), his idiosyncratic expressions (HAW HAW HAW! and @#!? for all evil characters, for example), his belief that anybody who isn’t “Christian” (note the quotation marks) hasn’t heard of Jesus, his lame attempts to connect almost every aspect of secular culture with SATAN, etc. I find these things inexplicably humorous, and my stupid thread was just a reflection of that. I’m sure many people here agree with me. And finally, to echo what other people here have said, if you don’t like the topic of a thread, DON’T READ IT. Sorry if that’s a bit too polite for the Pit, you rotting bag of soggy bonobo assholes.

What, Jack Chick offends you? You mean that he STOPPED offending you between this thread and the LAST Chick thread you posted to!? Or is it one long string of offence that keeps hanging around longer than a gential herpes infection.

Stop eating bandwidth of the boards you … you… Ohhh lots of profanity is dancing, prancing and twirling, twirling around in my mind. Ehh where was I. Damnit, stop posting about it, we all think he’s an idiot… Save the bandwidth for more important things, like that ‘lawyer’ who is annoying me.

News flash: Jack Chick ‘con’ on controversial druids issue.

Hell yes! And while we’re at it, STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT CARROT TOP!! WE GET IT ALREADY!! HE’S ANNOYING!!
