Hey Josh. Show me your boobies and I'll give you these virtual beads...
:)
Throw me sumpin', mistah!
Ah, New Orleans and Chick comics. Two things inexorably tied to my childhood. Our church an hour North of NO prayed hard every Mardi Gras! Me, I'm still working out all of the emotional baggage left over from a fundie upbringing! The trunk's unpacked, but I think I have a suitcase or two to go.
Can I have some wine to go with this cheese-tastic-ness? ;)
This little tract is obviously a fraud. Every self-respecting Chick tract fan knows that they would never cast a transvestite as the Grandma - as the last picture so obviously shows she is.
chick tracks are the stuff that made a messed up 9 year old out of me...that and all those 80s rapture films.
Anyone remember Chick's, "This Was Your Life?" That's the one that kept me awake at night...that and all those 70s rapture films.
(How did the church scare the shit out of kids before movies?)
Nuns, Dorsey. Lots and lots of nuns. Flying ones, too.
Oh..."Hey, Josh show me your man boobs...."
Thanks a lot, that just out did any Chick track damage ever done to me!
OMG! Wow! What to say? Don't even know where to start.
Oh Dorse...I had the stomach for "This Was Your Life" by the time I was 9...all those Chick comics (the one with the Alberto series) gave me the guts for it. But I still can't touch those stuff without cringing.
Says the quarter-lifer with a silly cloud phobia.
I got nuthin'.
I have to agree the chick tracks are bad. In 1976 I was working a pallet factory
and left them in the washroom and reading area (what a mistake) my co-workers were so
angry with me, I never even said anything about Christ to anyone openly, yet they knew it was me.
The one guy at the factory ran a tow motor into me when I wasn't looking trying to push me into
a 12 foot high bandsaw. Thankfully I escaped serious injury and I am still here.
I some times wonder if Satan would be chick tracks biggest fan, he likes to laugh alot in them if I recall.
I wouldn't give a Chick track to anyone.
I also remember those stupid 666/Rapture films. D-grade Christian horror films in my opinion.
They should be thrown into hell along with all of the chick tracks.
Between them and the charamatic movmements/cults I got sucked into (I was young then in my teens) it's a wonder I still believe in Jesus.
After all these years I don't trust anyone or what they say as a result, without carefull and complete investigation into what is being touted as the "truth" or "God's revelation".

Sometime we're going to have to deconstruct the whole "backward masking"/Satanic rock music thing that was popular back in the late 70's/early 80's.
I was just talking with my brother's about these tracts, man I love the comic book feel they have and how damn corny they are. I think I want to collect them like I collected Garbage Pail Kids cards in the late 80's.
I love how Satan always works with some people in these tracts, somehow he convinced them he was cool. Look at him, does he look cool...damn that dude has horns and he is red...who the hell would trust that? I think I'll check his judgmental site out, if I can find it, and see if I can get all the tracts to start a collector's thing.
I also remember those stupid 666/Rapture films. D-grade Christian horror films in my opinion.
I saw one "rapture" film at summer camp that was just absolutely horrible, looking back.
I forget what it was called (it may've been Thief in the Night, but I'm not sure), but it involved this guy making a tape for his unsaved family members (mainly his parents and sister) about what was going to happen to them if they didn't get saved and all that. It ended with him all teary-eyed telling them about this dream he had about them at an airport waiting for a flight to heaven, and only the guy, his little brother, and their grandparents boarded it. Sweet lawd, that was a cheese-tastic movie.
And Zeke, a blog post deconstructing "backward masking" would definitely rock...somewhere! (Youth group flashback!)
I always found it ironic that tract makers, who pride themselves on their Scriptural knowledge and accuracy, always make Satan out to be a stereotypically pitch-fork & horn weilding ugly monster.
I think tracts have been used by God to reach people but are generally used by cowards who are too chicken-$#!^ to engage culture.
*grrr*
I can't believe I bought in to the whole backmasking thing!
*laments over wasted allowance*
And yes, it was Thief In The Night. Horror movie indeed.(While I personally thought that the 1st Left Behind movie was awesome, it only made me wish I'd be "left behind" ---it seemed cool, and while I've been a Christian all my life, I thought I wouldn't mind if I were)
greetings to my bro. and sis. out there.
just found this blog. i've been a christian for 40 years, since the age of 17. for 20 years i did it all (boards, teaching, summer Bible school. etc) within the institution and structure that our culture calls 'church' . . in the second 20 years i have experienced a recoiling from that place.
when thinking back on the 'why and what' we were doing in that institution i realize that many of us were simply trying to please God and do what He wanted. We just wanted to do what was right.
As I drew closer to HIM and allowed my mind to think beyond the boundaries of believing we were 100% biblical in our christian lifestyle, the distaste for what we were doing crept into my heart.
It's not an easy ride, to stop the Sunday maddness, when the whole community is doing the organizational thing.
But i can not take the death of it.
However, I do think many of those still 'doing their thing' within the walls of those buildings, do so because they think they are pleasing God. And most of those folks truly love Him and want to follow Him.
Also, our Father is able to use weak and flawed efforts for the multiplying of His Kingdom.
After all, I found him as a teenager through the passionate words of a loving preacher.
Now it's unpleasant to enter the door.
hum.
Chick Tracts
If anyone wants to read them, here they are.
All of them. I personally think the Dungeons & Dragons is the best one.
Well, that did it for me. I'm never going to 'keep on partying' again. I'M SAVED! Whew. Thanks.
NICE... that touched me in a very very special place... oh my!
It's so refreshing to see that these people are doing a far better job at tearing down the "church" than Satan ever could. These guys are great. Even ol' Lu couldn't come up with this shit.
But guess what, Chick is yesterday...
this guy is today:

(scroll down and watch video-- to those who are internetly challenged, or as I like to call them: webtards)
ah that's special.
well kiddies, enjoy!!
see ya later andy ;) (wink)
p.s. Do you play chess?
... um just one more thought.
you know... this little blog thing is nice and all, but it seems to be missing something. i'm not sure what it is... maybe a little:
Crossrevconnect.com
oh yeah baby... that's it! The magig ingredient. I mean honestly, how dare you call yourself a christian, much less claim a faith-based website, without a blessed host: a virtual mad max type jesus.
That's right kiddies, if j to the C'izzo ain't no yo site, yu betta stepoff sucka!
