Have you ever seen these annoying little comic books that are left in laundromats, bus stations, phone booths, and everywhere else? These are the writings and drawings of Jack T. Chick. He wasn't good enough to make a living drawing Superman, so he started drawing fun-for-mental X-ian comics instead.

I like this parody of Jack T. Chick's comics.

One of the funnier lines from one of the comics there is when Jack T. Chick dies and goes to be judged by God. :

Chick: "But I'm forgiven! You died on the cross for the World's sins! I beleive in you! Jesus Saves!

God: That's Absurd! Why would I need to sacrifice myself to myself, to allow me to change a rule I made myself?

This athiest pardody of those annoying christian comic books encourages everyone to copy and distribute them as freely as desired. One of the creators has a project where he is encouraging people to buy multiple copies of "The Origin of the Species" by Charles Darwin and start putting them in hotel rooms, airports, etc.

Oh, and has anyone heard of a group called F.R.O.G.G.I.E.S? It stands for 'Fundamental Religious (something something something.)' This group encourages it's members to carry party noisemakers shaped like little metal frogs in their pockets. Whenever some religious yahoo comes up to you and wants to speak with you, or ask you for money...point the frog at their face like it was a loaded revolver. Then, press the frog's head and make a "CLICK CLICK CLICK" noise until religious wingnut gives up and walks away. I don't know where to get one of these frogs in Canada. A gift or novelty shop I guess. I suppose any 'Happy New Year' type of noisemaker would work just as well, but I would prefer the Froggie, just for tradition's sake.
