Jack Chick: Craziest Man Ever?
|
I've collected a few Chick tracts here and there. When we visited Virginia Beach, a bunch of kids were handing them out to everyone passing by on the street.
What's even better than Chick tracts are the Chick tract parodies: http://www.weirdcrap.com/chick/archive.html
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

For a long while, I thought the real Chick tracts were atheist parodies.
Durrrr. There's nobody that deluded, is there? Yup. There is. 
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould 
There is a movie about Chick called God's Cartoonist:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtoJV7sKAwU I find the tracts to be quite fascinating in their utter bizarreness. I remember coming across one for the first time in the late 70s and I assumed that it was a parody -- and I thought it was hilarious. Later I discovered that these were not a parody and that the author was serious -- no, seriously. Chick Publications has published numerous authors who have been exposed as frauds, such as, Rebecca Brown and "Alberto." Chick has also published some authors who have been dismissed as complete crackpots, such as, Bill Schnobelen, who claims that he was once a vampire -- no, seriously. Every single author that Chick has published, without exception, has been a fraud or a crackpot. I have wondered if there has ever been a single case of someone converting to xtianity via Chick tract.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste -- don't pollute it with bullshit.
Notice that Chick publications discontinued the one about Lisa, but you can still find it online. It's considered the most vile and disgusting Chick tract ever made.

Chick is one sick puppy.

A religious tract that says it's OK to abuse and molest your daughter as long as you beg God for forgiveness and accept Jesus as your lord and savior. Who cares about all the physical and emotional trauma your child went through? You're going to heaven now!
