Well, being that I'm a Roman Catholic, I don't think Jack likes me very much. Since he's said Roman Catholics aren't Christians, have allegiance to the pope over the country (in which case I am really boned because I must have left my papal visa somewhere...Oh, wait, I didn't get one.), hijacked some portions of religion from other religions (which a)happens in every religion that lasts long enough and b) Jack is not even correct about other religions because he says Osiris is the egyptian sun god but he isn't, he's the god of the dead and Ra is the sun god unless you're talking about Akhenaten's sun god, Aten, but either way it's not Osiris and 5 seconds with Wikipedia could have told you that.), and, oh yeah, that Satan controls the pope.
However, I don't think anyone's religion is worth mocking, because I do think that everyone should be respected for their choice. But I do pity Jack, because he seems so full of hatred for anyone who is not following Jack Chick's guide to religion. And he could have a bit more sensativity, considering that there are still places in the world (North Ireland, for one) where Catholics and Protestants still tear each other up on a daily basis.
Really, I think Jack Chick is on the same level as the racists who pass out literature about "not polluting the gene pool" or how "mixing with others is bad." He's a writer of hate speech, and, as such - someone who is best ignored. _________________

I agree with Sophita completely. Being a Christian myself, I feel that people like Chick give Christianity a bad name. There isn't enough room in the world for people who preach this fire and brimstone crap anymore.
As a sidethought, wouldn't it be ironically funny if he ended up going to hell for being such a jerk? |
