1. That is unconscionable.
Pretending that dentists are capable of loving anyone is unforgiveable.

They are sadists. It's science. I made a chart.

3. Saw this yesterday . . . .
And sprayed Pepsi all over my monitor when I saw this frame:



If someone tries to make you gay, stay away from them.. . . .

BUAHAHAHAHAHA

What a frickin' loon.

5. At least they capitalized the word "Gay."
If nothing else, that denotes a certain level of respect.

6. I saw that too
Probably because he's a fairly well-known actor who might be recognized for the EEEEEVIL being he is by Chick's prepubescent target audiences, especially as he has voiced a variety of animated characters.

Someone has been leaving Chick tracts in a variety of languages around my library as of late, so he's especially on my shit list anyway.

11. The last time I saw an anti-gay Chick tract, it showed a male couple...
...walking into a nightclub named GAY BAR. :eyes:

15. Jack likes to keep it simple.
It's a wise policy... considering his audience.

17. Oh, no --
Edited on Thu May-20-04 09:55 AM by nownow
has the Chick organization been infiltrated by Electric 6? Stay tuned, kids.

Edited to add -- does he really think this is going to convince anybody? Do you know any school kid that age who wouldn't run screaming for the bathroom if s/he saw a dentist? Pleeeze...

28. Ain't that the damn truth
There is a tool called a "high-speed engraver." Imagine a Dremel that runs at 15,000 RPM. The high-speed engraver was invented by a dentist who liked to take eggs, blow out the insides and carve the shells into lacy designs with his dental drill. Everyone needs a hobby, right? Anyway, he was making a lot of money on the side selling these eggs as pieces of art...until one day he was carving an egg and realized it would be a hell of a lot easier to carve the eggs if the drill bit stuck straight out from the handle. He got someone to make him a straight drill, which as he figured worked like a charm. He liked to do crafts fairs, and he'd sit in his booth carving eggs--someone saw him doing it, asked where he got the tool, and next thing you know he had three sources of income--selling the tools at $1500 apiece (which quickly became his most lucrative source), selling the eggs at $500 apiece (his second most lucrative), and fixing teeth, which he enjoyed very much.

He got out of the dental business when he met one of his customers' mothers in the supermarket and spent the next ten minutes helping to chase down her screaming daughter, who took out running immediately after seeing her dentist.

However, I really like the little demons on their shoulders.

10. Chick gives right-wing fundie nutcases a bad name.
Edited on Thu May-20-04 09:47 AM by Beware the Beast Man
Seriously, this guy is ill. In the Chickiverse:
1. Everyone (including the Masons, Jesuits and Illuminati)is in on a big conspiracy to destroy true-bible-loving Christians.
2.Catholics are a bunch of Isis-worshipping cannibals.
3. Gays are out to convert our children by force.
4. The king James Bible magically fell out of the sky some time after Jesus' death.
5. Almost all evildoers are swarthy (serious, take a look)


The amout of ignorance in his tracts is staggering.

16. With the only difference being that Phelps is a specialist.
Edited on Thu May-20-04 09:53 AM by JCCyC
Chick is a generalist. He has the self-discipline to spend considerable time hating things other than gays (Catholics, Muslims, Evolution, Rock music etc.)

18. Wow! I didn't even realize the guy was still kicking!
Unlike rank-and-file RW fundies or Fred Phelps (who I don't consider a fundie so much as a deranged psychopath), Jack Chick doesn't offend me. He makes me laugh.

33. Joke
I was joking, actually. The son was a bit of a wild man party animal, until Jack threatened to cut off his inheritance... then the boy found religion, and toes the party line. He'll be one of the hypocrits that seems to run the reich wing branch of American Christianity.

My apoligies to all true Christians, but Jack and son are making your religion look bad.

22. How could that be?
Without being thrown in jail, that is?

Let me attempt to be less moderate than Chick... ahem.

"EVERYBODY WHO DOESN'T GO OUT TODAY AND KILL AT LEAST 10 GAYS, 25 ATHEISTS, 15 MUSLIMS AND 20 CATHOLICS IS GOING TO HELL! GO BUY A GUN AND DO IT NOW OR GOD WILL SEND YOU AND EVERYBODY WITH THE SAME SURNAME AS YOU TO HELL!!!!!!"

Did I succeed? You see, it CAN be done, but not legally.

Seems like Michael Savage is proving you wrong there. He's saying exactly the same thing and he's totally getting away with it.

27. Oh, I think it's CLEAR she's a lesbian.
Not only is she wearing PANTS, the ungodly bitch, but her last name is Henn. What are you willing to bet that her first name is Lesby? Hmmmm?

32. LIES LIES LIES LIES (as if you all didn't already know that) -- SUMMARIZED
Because I am bored and this thing pisses me off, allow me to summarize all of the lies in this tract (except for some about what the bible says):

1. I'll say this once although it applies throughout: No one would go to a school, or be a teacher in a school, and say these things to the children. Moreover, people don't act like this in reality -- only in your fantasies, Jack. No, Jack, this is not "the homosexual agenda."

2. "Wife" refers to a woman. A gay man doesn't refer to his partner as his "wife" but as his husband. This is a no-brainer (for everyone but, apparently, Jack Chick)

3. No gay couple I know would kiss each other in front of a room full of elementary school children. We are not ashamed but we know better -- we don't want to invite the kind of hatred Jack incites in this tract.

4. A teacher might reprimand a kid for using the word "queer," and might (unfortunately) even shame him for doing so -- but not in the manner in which Jack's "Ms. Henn" does so. :eyes:

5. "Your father is wrong" - "dangerous" -- no teacher in his/her right mind would say this to a child, even if s/he thinks it

6. "He should be in an insane asylum" -- oh, GMAFB. The mind boggles to think this guy actually thinks gay people believe people like the boy's dad should be in insane asylums.

7. Intolerant = evil? We gays want the intolerant to be in prison? Get off it, Jack.

8. "This is how the Gays are changing the way little school kids think." Bullshit. And, see # 1.

9. "The bible is true." BWAHAHAHA

10. "Can't have a bible in school." Bullshit.

11. "God gave us a true picture of the Gay lifestyle in the bible." Bullshit.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! BULLSHIT! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

There. I feel much better.

Bullshit. No I don't. :grr:
