I need that “my ancestor” shirt.
Yeah the future looks pretty fucking cool. Free birth control? Drugs and sex? Leather jackets?? Hell yeah
I want the shirt that promotes the concept of Drugs (and also pirates?)
Guy looks straight out of the old mad max movies
My first thought
Ok, but that “my ancestor” is shirt is actually sick and I’d wear it
They got the guns right, I guess. But hey, Jesus apparently likes those… isn’t that what the so-called god-fearing christians are preaching these days?
Ah, but you see the “christians” only need the guns because they have guns, whoever the they is at this point in time
Somehow free birth control and sexual orientation counseling are supposed to be bad?
Yes, enjoying sex is bad. God gave you those nerve endings but doesn’t want you to use them because logic.

Victim envy. The Puritans had a great thing going in Holland, except for the fact that they had to consort with other people who wanted religious freedom. The Puritans needed to be isolated so they could be ‘free’ of other people’s ideas.
Remember, you aren’t free unless you’re standing on another person’s back.
Jack Chick made a “career” if it.
This looks to be his handiwork.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say this is Danny Bulanadi’s work instead.
And you are correct! Didn’t see the signature, Apologies

Mad Magazine did.
And yes, they are quite twisted and lovely.
Ironically, I can more easily see the kid in the second panel holding a rifle. He grew up to be this:
For whatever reason I can’t stop seeing her as James Bond from an alternate universe where he’s actually a crackhead woman where guys never want to sleep with her but she tries anyway. She takes her martini shaken and stirred on the crack rocks.
Also, horrendous trigger discipline and I don’t even use guns lol
It’s actually really good trigger discipline, if you’re trying to kill someone. Which, let’s be honest, she probably hoped she could.
They love to pretend they are persecuted. Usually to justify their own shit
This is Mad Magazine. In the 1990s.
It’s from one of their longest running segments, “The Lighter Side of”
Everyone reacting here is hilarious
I don’t recall Mad Magazine including Bible quotes:
Thread op is a liar! Get yer pitchforks!
If only
Who’s banning books?
Looks like a Chick Tract. These have always been ludicrous. In fact they had one about Dungeons and Dragons, which got a movie adaptation (by folks that were almost certainly taking the piss), which has a “review” by JonTron.
I love that phrase. “Taking the piss.“ Shame it would make me stick out like crazy/sound ridiculous if I used it in the US lol
I watched that (the original, not the review) assuming it was serious at first, but there’s no way it’s not some level of parody when they drop a couple lesbian hints before the girls even get into RPGs (because that conflicts with the line about choosing to be homosexual.)
I was surprised when the preacher at the end said that occult works included those of Tolkien and CS Lewis, but after looking it up, turns out Jack Chick actually believed that.
It was a surprisingly interesting movie nonetheless. Thought it was interesting how the evil wizards used computers to track magic levels. You don’t see that very often.
For context, I am a Christian, and I also play TTRPGs. I once even ran a Bible-themed one-shot for some kids during sunday school. They’re not inherently evil, but there’s definitely a risk if you’re not careful about what you’re playing and who you’re playing with. Though the same can be said for a lot of people, which is why it’s generally agreed to be important to set boundaries before you start.
Moral of the story: GMs, don’t kill off player characters, or the players will kill themselves off, apparently.
dude was rocking a neck tattoo and brow piercings. he was way ahead of the curve.
If only that top panel was what we got 😭
The only bad thing in the comic are the weapons really which in my experience at least the fundamentalist seem to love.
Strangely the cop isn’t armed. How’s he going to shoot anyone’s dog?
