 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

It's no wonder that the Southern Poverty Law Centre classified Chick Publications as a hate group.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Not sure what you mean there.  As a Catholic child I often celebrated Halloween.  Of course, the Catholic church had to coopt the holiday and turn Halloween into "All Saints Day" on Nov. 1, making it a holy day of obligation so you'd better get your butt to church for an hour on Halloween night or the next morning or burn in Hell.  As a kid I always hated that because wasting an hour in church on Halloween night meant all the good candy would be gone by the time you got out there.

Ah, how great it is to not feel obligated any more.

Yeah in US Halloween is very big holiday and Vatican is far away, so they get away with it. I was more talking about European Catholic countries, like Italy or Germany.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

For me, the final panel with the girl's face was really unsettling. It was a little girl, holding a teddy bear. And there was a mixture of fear and "relief" on her face. No child should have to go through that, yet the parents saw fit to forget about the abuse they themselves inflicted on their child and didn't even fucking apologize to her. But what unsettled me the most was that, in reality, there would've most likely not have been any permanent change on the part of the father, and he would've eventually committed the dreadful acts again in the future ... because Jesus saves anyway.

But when the dad reoffends, he can then just rededicate his life to Christ again.

Christ died for ALL of his sins, no matter how many times he commits them.

You don't see what others see. Your too busy trying to be proven correct. Good luck!

The point of the tracts is to persuade people to repent (which means turn away from) of what they are doing and believe on Jesus Christ, he's not just telling stories for the sake of telling stories, they usually involve different subjects that may relate to a situation that someone is in.

That being said, what if a person that is actively abusing a child reads the "Lisa" tract and it causes him to stop what he's doing and seek help? That's a good thing, right?

That's the whole idea behind the tracts... that just maybe somewhere, one can change someones life.

I may not agree with Jack chick on everything but I see what he was trying to accomplish.

The world would have been a nicer , smarter place if Jack Chick would have stayed home and done beginner crossword puzzles all day.
