Ouch. Nasty stuff. The art is a little better than Ziggy…but that’s the only good thing I’m gonna say about this wretched little product of a hate-filled mind… (You want a Christian comic strip that had a lot of class? Latigo, by Stan Lynde. Strict Biblical message, but mostly upbeat and cheerful…and with some of the best art you’ll ever find!) Trinopus ---

Christianity is sorta funny. Comics are funny (unless they are of the “Terry and the Pirates” type). Why are these Christian comix so NOT funny? The cat v. dog one… What’s it mean? should I not care about my pets 'cause they’re doomed to burn burn burn on Lucifer’s hibachi? Are pets damned? I never even suspected. Is it because cats are pagan? ---

I’m ashamed to say the second one got a chuckle out of me – you don’t have to be a creationist to enjoy the gag. The rest are the hellspawn lovechild of Nancy, Ziggy, and Family Circus after a mass conversion experience. ---

It’s not really a creationist gag. The joke is that we read the dialogue, and think “These people are arguing over whether cats or dogs are better pets”, whereas in fact they’re arguing over which is more evil. ---

\ It’s so sad when people don’t know enough Christian theology such that they can’t tell the difference between fundamentalist ravings and long-held traditional mainline belief. Please open you Bible to the first chapter of John: > [@](#): > > 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came to be through him, and without him nothing came to be. What came to be 4 through him was life, and this life was the light of the human race… The Word, being the second person of the Trinity (i.e., Jesus) was the person **through whom** all things came to be. Witness the Nicene Creed (325 AD): > [@](#): > > We believe in one God, father almighty, maker of all things, both visible and invisible. And in one lord, Jesus Christ, the son of God, begotten from the father, only-begotten, that is from the being of the father, God from God, light from light, true God from True God, begotten not made, one in being with the father, **through whom all things came to be** , both those in heaven and those on the earth… And, so says [Thomas Aquinas](http://www.newadvent.org/summa/104506.htm). So, if you’re a Christian, even a non-fundamentalistic Christian, it **is** the belief of your faith that “Jesus created the universe” (to put it crudely). Peace. ---
