1. The text, it's so tiny! |

What am I? NOT almost 40 with failing vision.

3. Old anti-faith propaganda is old. Same tactic Hitler used against the Jews. |

Perhaps God will send the offending cartoonist to hell.

8. You're doing it wrong. |
|
You're supposed to engage in conversation, a little back-and-forth; not just immediately pull out Godwin's Law.

9. You missed the point, on purpose, you poor put upon apologist. |
|
Which parts of that is propaganda, the true parts?
Must sting a little, your fellow religionists getting called out like that.
If you don't like what was in that cartoon, do as Jesus commanded his followers to do, but which many so-called 'Christians' seem to forget so easily.

11. You folks kind of have a reputation |
|
Of not being able to see truth even when it's laid plainly in front of you. You aren't helping to dispel the notion.

13. I guess you missed the part |
|
Where it's the truth. As one of those dirty heathen atheists, I can assure you of that.

16. Yes Hitler was well known for humorously skewering Jewish majoritarian proselytizing |
|
About as much as German Jews were known for majoritarian proselytizing that is. Damned yids were always insisting that all Germans follow Kosher rules and be subject to the covenant. And that puckish Adolf just loved making cute cartoons about why they were really just too insecure!

7. Well, they are children of god and are acting like children... |
|
I suggest you go into the belly of the beast, go to one of those big box churches sprawled out on land they don't pay taxes on and see what is going on...

12. Excellent. Never knew how much "christians" annoyed me till I moved to the south |
|
Your comics are spot-on. All the born again evangelical types I deal with day to day ( with about 2 exceptions ) are exactly like the comics depict: Pushing hard their own beliefs, and feeling they're being hunted down for eradication if anyone tries to even suggest there is another way of thinking.

15. I don't think this should have been moved out of GD and stuck in Religion |
|
it's not a discussion about who's tale is bigger, better or builds the prettiest churches. It's a spot on commentary on the who range of supposedly progressive issues - gay rights, abortion, school vouchers (anti), 1st Amendment - that are under political attack hidden behind the guise of religion in this country.
