  Yes, this is a Chick tract, which are real comics you are supposed to give to people to convince them to become (Jack Chick’s specific variety of) Christian.

  “When I was a waitress, a man and his wife would leave a tract for me with a tip. Eventually, they asked me to join them on a Sunday for church and the rest is history. Praise the Lord, these people cared for my soul…a complete stranger.”

    I consider it a civic duty to collect these whenever I find them and throw them in the trash.

        You want me to send you free copies of the Book of Mormon and the Watchtower, too?

    Wow. I did not know of this. Thanks for posting. It’s kind of frightening knowing it’s a real comic for the purpose you mentioned. I used to be religious (as a kid) but have never come across these (thankfully).

    I can’t comment further on the subject matter, other than: Christianity (well at least some [most?] of it) is a terrible invention.

    Glad I’m far removed from it now.
