Minor point in the OP, I recall seeing Chick tracts in the late 70's. I can't recall if I saw any in college (fall 75 to spring 76) but they were definitely being circulated at my first employer, 1976-79.
There were people passing them out then that sincerely thought just putting the right one in a given sinners hands could lead them to Salvation, apparently within seconds to moments after reading it.
Obviously, I saw a 'homo' one, and a general come to Jesus one and I'm pretty sure an anti-Catholic one.

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