  I grew up reading these. So fucked up. One of them was pulled from print for advocating that CSA victims stay at home with their abusers and forgive them (or else), so long as their abuser believes in Jesus.

    Lisa. (Which I wonder if it inspired the video game Lisa at all - similar themes). It’s horrifically fucked up, but of note is that the doctor doesn’t report the dad for letting his friend fuck his daughter (giving her herpes), because the dad finds Jesus and promises never to do it again. (This is how it often happens to this day in parts of the Southern US - like they pulled it because of bad PR, not because they didn’t stand behind the message: it’s not “wow this was fucked up and we’re sorry to have ever thought this was a good idea” but just “we no longer stock Lisa”

    It looks like the internet archive took down their copy, which is concerning. It’s been out of print for decades.

  They sure love their fantasy way more than reality.

  The honor thy parents commandment is justified as “so you live longer”, and is God affirming the law at the time that your parents can choose, have the right, to execute you for any reason.

  Only “good Christians” like Kristi Noem kills pets.

  This is a real comic and not just a shitpost or satire?

    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.

      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.
