Jimh 4 Posted February 28, 2005 With JP2 unlikely to require an inclusion on next year's list perhaps it is time to consider a possible replacement for his holiness in the "Nearly Dead Religious Types" category. I would like to nominate Mr Jack Chick for this award. For those not aware of this gentleman's works (some claim him to be the world's most published author) you can check out his website >just here<. If you aren't keen on wading through that nonsense you can cut to the chase on his tract list page >just here<. Some of his best works revolve around some splendidly nonsensical decontruction of evolution and an almost beautifully simplistic solution to the whole Arab/Israeli conflict (convert the Arabs to Christianity). Whilst failing to turn me onto the word of God he has kept me laughing for a few years now. Mr Chick is now 81 and must be getting close to "going home to the Lord". Whilst rather reclusive (even finding his age is tricky) I believe he passes the fame test because of the sheer volume of works he has produced in his lifetime and the number of people who (perhaps without realising it) have read his ghastly little booklets.

Rude Kid 3 Posted February 28, 2005 Good call, and... ghastly little booklets ...good description This is one of my favourite Chick tracts: Party Girl Moral of the story: if you have the audacity to go to a party, not only will Satan try to poison you, but worse still, your granny might turn up, talking bollocks.

Jimh 4 Posted March 1, 2005 It's hard to pick a favourite but it's difficult not to love the old boy for his homophobia. >He likes to start 'em young< I appreciate this site is about prediction rather than a wishlist but I can't help feeling everyone would be happier if this loathesome bigot weren't here anymore.

Octopus of Odstock 1,850 Posted September 8, 2007 Rare sighting of Jack Chick Looks okay, too, for a man who has the illness he has had recently. But pictures can be deceiving... He is, however still working, apparently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarolAnn 924 Posted September 9, 2007 Rare sighting of Jack Chick Looks okay, too, for a man who has the illness he has had recently. But pictures can be deceiving... He is, however still working, apparently I thought he'd only had a triple bypass. Those are really no big deal anymore. Hell, my mom had one 13 years ago, then a quad two years ago, and she's still working and driving everyone nuts. Has he had something else go wrong since the bypass?

Jimh 4 Posted September 10, 2007 Oh lordy, that one is a classic. They were on the Ark were they? I can't help feeling that if they'd had a few dozen dragons on board it might have merited at least one mention. And Noah said, my God those things are bloody huge. And the dragons did feast on the tigers and the lions and the anchovies and the... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tuber Mirum 119 Posted September 11, 2007 Nah, they didn't get as far as the lions and tigers. Actually I'm surprised they managed as many dinosaurs as they did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emily the Strange 2 Posted September 24, 2007 Ooooo, Jack Chick is my 'favourite' 'cartoonist'. I must say that I read his little tracts for fun, even if he bashes my religion on a regular basis and not just on Halloween. But then again, he bashes all religions except his own version of Christianity. Didn't know he was getting on like that.... I sure will miss his little fantasy tracts when he tries to get past the pearly gates himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
