You, too, can be saved!
Anyone familiar with the works of Jack Chick, the truly deranged Evangelist loony whose tracts are quite well known, and for some people like myself are prized for their utter stupidity? The guy has cult status, and for those who doesn't know him, here's his website. http://www.chick.com/default.asp
After familiarizing yourself with Chick tracts (one or two would suffice, although I would recommend reading them all, they are hilarious  ) check this Chick-spinoff done by someone else, using the original artwork but changing the lines. The original tract is about Catholics and how they're actually worshipping Satan and that they will burn in hell, but the spinoff is a riot. http://www.livejournal.com/users/ononion/1576.html

Re: You, too, can be saved!

Re: You, too, can be saved!
Ok, I did view it. Mildly amusing but I still think Jack Chick is a lot funnier

Re: You, too, can be saved!
That goes without saying.
The only reason this tract is funny is because it's a spinoff; without previous knowledge of Mr. Chick and his work, it wouldn't mean much.
