I grew up reading these. So fucked up. One of them was pulled from print for advocating that CSA victims stay at home with their abusers and forgive them (or else), so long as their abuser believes in Jesus.

Lisa. (Which I wonder if it inspired the video game Lisa at all - similar themes). It’s horrifically fucked up, but of note is that the doctor doesn’t report the dad for letting his friend fuck his daughter (giving her herpes), because the dad finds Jesus and promises never to do it again.
This is how it often happens to this day in parts of the Southern US - like they pulled it because of bad PR, not because they didn’t stand behind the message: it’s not “wow this was fucked up and we’re sorry to have ever thought this was a good idea” but just “we no longer stock Lisa”
It looks like the internet archive took down their copy, which is concerning. It’s been out of print for decades.

They sure love their fantasy way more than reality.

But where is the bit about heavy metal music?

If ever I get the chance to relieve myself on Jack Chicks grave...

All my slimes love Halloween sacrifices

The honor thy parents commandment is justified as "so you live longer", and is God affirming the law at the time that your parents can choose, have the right, to execute you for any reason.

Only "good Christians" like Kristi Noem kills pets.

the hell is this?

that actually looks like a really cool comic I might have to read it at some point

This is a real comic and not just a shitpost or satire?
-
Yes, this is a Chick tract, which are real comics you are supposed to give to people to convince them to become (Jack Chick’s specific variety of) Christian.

I consider it a civic duty to collect these whenever I find them and throw them in the trash.

Wow. I did not know of this. Thanks for posting. It's kind of frightening knowing it's a real comic for the purpose you mentioned. I used to be religious (as a kid) but have never come across these (thankfully).
I can't comment further on the subject matter, other than: Christianity (well at least some [most?] of it) is a terrible invention.
Glad I'm far removed from it now.

Is that one of those comic books the religious nuts hand out on Halloween?
yes, they are called Chick Tracts
Well maybe if they didn't send their kid off dressed like a member of the Hitler youth they wouldn't have these issues...
Wait, this isn't just someone's fever dream?
Those are unhinged! I like the Catholic/Jewish/communism conspiracy ones though.
The worst was "Lisa," where the father sexually abused his daughter, let's his friend rape her as well, gives her herpes, then blames it on a porn addiction and his wife being cold to him. Oh, and Jesus forgives him so there's no need to actually do anything with regards to his daughter.
God’s Cartoonist is a good documentary if you want to learn more about Chick. He’s a mysterious figure, like as mysterious as Thomas Pynchon imho.
He’s a huge inspiration to the Subgeniuses. Subgenii? Either way, I sent my $30 to Bob and can’t wait for the flying saucers.
