Latest Chick tracts

[Professor Cold Heart]

Not sure how long they've been up there, but I just found Jack Chick's latest offerings: Is Allah Like You? and The Little Sneak.

Is Allah Like You?, which features a cameo from Patrick Stewart as a wife-beatering dick, is about a Muslim who does research into the Koran and realises that it's all pants. If anone can be bothered, there's plenty of obvious potential in dialogue alterations.

The other one is notable largely for this panel:

Ah, yes, Jesus can totally make abusive scum stop being abusive scum.

The Little Sneak is actually pretty hilarious. Because I can totally see a little kid stealing all his parents' money and being okay with living under a bridge rather than giving it back.

You know, aside from being pretty damn nonsensical, The Little Sneak is quite possibly one of the best ones he's made because its simple, to the point and doesn't use painfully bad "logic." The lack of words helps, I'm sure. Sure its still propaganda stupidity, but hey, this is Chick we're talking about.

As for Is Allah Like You, when he highlighted something negative about Allah, I couldn't help but notice that I've heard of people saying the same about the Christian version of the Abrahamic god. At the same time, when he highlighted something positive about the Christian version of god, I couldn't help but notice that Muslims say the same thing about their version of god.

Okay, so it says nowhere in the Bible to, I don't know, kill disobedient children? Or that women should stfu in houses of worship? And there was no polygamy with positive Bible characters?

Also, a devote Muslim never would have let a dog around. And he probably would whoop ass with his left hand to add insult to injury. Just sayin'.

[katz]

Also, in The Little Sneak, is it bad and/or racist I thought the mother was a prostitute in the first few panels? I mean, a guy comes in, they kiss, and then he gives her money and leaves.

And since when has Mike Tyson been in the giving out Bibles business?

Is the father in the little sneak, Leadbbelly?

This Freemason site really has a very sardonic (and accurate) article on Jack Chick. There are a couple of anti-Mason tracts that Chick has done that are just as ridiculous as any other tract.

I do kind of find it funny that "The Little Sneak" happens to be a caricature of black people (racist much Chicky boy?) and that there is no dialogue, which apparently the author of the Freemason site has summed it up quite nicely:

An equal opportunity bigot

Not only does Chick hate Freemasons, Catholics and Jews, but he seems to have a particular bias towards Blacks as well. Check out a particular tract's description as shown on the right. We were curious and went to the page where you can read it (here). Actually, there's not much to read at all because unlike the many, many other Chick tracts, there are virtually NO words: it's pretty much all just pictures. Compare any of the other tracts and you will see. Apparently in the Jack Chick world, "black audiences" can't read....

The Allah one cracks me up though, I would like to think that the Muslimah in my classroom would find it amusing.

Apperantly Chick doesn't know what the Christian God says about women.

Evidently dear readers you are unaware of Chick's mission to reach out to African Americans.

Read and shriek...

To be fair, that guy's not really black. He's Satan (no, really- read the tract)

The bit that makes me want to scream out loud is where he's bitching about how the holy book of "teh enemy" was written after the death of their holy man and pieced together from several different sources, and that therefore it couldn't possibly be divinely inspired.

Except that's exactly how the fucking bible came together too.

ETA: Same with the whole "he could have just made everyone love him, but instead he's sending them to hell". And the bit about how god/allah can change his mind. Seriously, idiot needs to ACTUALLY READ HIS FUCKING HOLY TEXT.

I was going to post the same comments. Esp the part about Allah changing his mind.

I also find it amusing that the Muslim had never heard the words of Jesus before finding the book. Muslims consider Jesus to be a prophet and study his words, just they put more emphasis on Mohammad. Any Muslim who had not heard of Jesus and his teachings was screwing up.
