Is he a well meaning comic artist or a certified nutjob?

For those lucky people who have never seen a Chick Tract- Jack Chick is an evangelical Christian whose self-made comics illustrating the path to Jesus have been brightening up the internet and ruining Halloween for many, many years. Chick is well-known for his hatred of evolution, Catholics, gay people, Catholics, Muslims and Catholics, and this prejudice is clearly apparent in his 'art'.

Hey, even if we can't find anything to debate about, there is a lot to laugh at here. From the above page, which describes the tracts: Gomez is Coming
Gomez is an imprisoned gang leader. Before he is to be released, his kid brother is killed in a drive-by shooting. Everyone expects Gomez to get revenge, but a chaplain leads him to Christ. In a surprise ending, Gomez forgives the killer.
(emphasis mine)

...After reading through a good bit of The Evils of Catholic, I would be very interested to find out what exactly these people think dying is like- you can't actually see them descending in to hell.

I'm way too tired to continue this conversation, but I advise you to check out the infamous 'Dark Dungeons' and maybe Google it for some parody fun.

Oh, forget it. I can hardly see the keyboards. I'm going to bed. :yawn:

Have you seen the one where the guy goes to prison and renames himself Muhammad? Actually all of the Islam tracts are so wrong as to almost cross the border from 'hilarious' into 'offensive'. And the source he cites for his information? "Islamic Invasion" by Robert Morey. Available on the site, of course, because on Amazon.com, people can leave reviews.
