Have YOU ever read CHICK Publications?

I am sure the Nazi's thought we had vile and offensive opinions of them, and hey, they followed a false leader, with false teaching, and I am glad someone said something about it.

I'm a little confused as to who you're comparing to the Nazi's here, Joe. Would you care to clarify that?

Yea, there's only one tiny, itsy bitsy problem with your comparison...

People who are nonChristian aren't following false teachings. They're following what's best for them and what keeps them at peace. Plus, the whole lack of killing a few million people for what they believe.

 

[Doktormartini]

Yeah, I don't mind Christians, in fact, I like them! But this guy is the psycho Christian type that I hate...claiming his religion is right and everyone elses is wrong. These are pretty funny though!

I discovered them a couple of months ago and ordered a free catalog. The books they sell are pretty funny too!

If you love someone you will tell them how to be saved

Even if it involves blatantly lying about and misrepresenting groups of people and/or viewpoints that one dislikes!

I am not comparing Nazi's or HItler to Jack, I am comparing them to the false prophets, cults, and religions which Jack exposes.

Jesus said, I am the way...noone comes to the Father but by me. That is very clear, whether folks want to believe it or not.

That is your opinion, Jack is not a liar, nor does he misrepresent people, He tells the truth, if they are depending on their specific organization or church, or their priest, or good works to save them, He says, no its through trusting in Christ alone, for this is the Bible truth. That is what He says, that is what the Bible says. He is proclaiming the truth, like it or not.

How does that justify your comparison of people that follow nonChristian religions to Nazis?

 

[Defij]

Oh yeah, this Chick guy is a real jerk! I mean, he's not tolerant of other faiths at all! If there is one thing I have no tolerance for it is for people who lack tolerance...**end sarcasm**

Seriously, I may disagree with this fellow and his method of spreading what he feels is the truth but I can’t knock him. He might not be spreading lies per se' he is most likely just ignorant of other faiths. It’s funny how people preach tolerance except towards those whom they disagree with.

There is only one way, Jesus, it is very clear from the scriptures. People are free to go there own way, and that is fine, Jesus said He is the way, not a church, not a religion, but trusting in His death on the cross to save us, and there is no other name given by which we may be saved. That is the truth, you can disagree, fine with me, but I am not your friend if I don't tell you, warn you, plead with you to trust Christ to save you. I can act like your friend, and say, oh, yeah, all ways are just fine, put your faith in whatever you want, but, its not your faith that saves you, if you put it in something false, its who you put your faith in that saves you, and that is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the one who paid for our sins, we have the written testimony of it. I respect your right to deny it and not accept it, but I am gonna tell you about it so you might be saved. I am just a poor sinner saved by the grace of God, a poor example, a weak sinful human, but thank God for His love and mercy, for His grace, and for His giving His Son that we may be saved. I am not against anyone Jack may speak against, actually, I love them, I am not against Catholics, I was one, my Mother was saved as a little girl in the Catholic Church, but, there are wrong teachings, unbiblical, man-made, and if someone can show people these things then that is good. If someone can show a false cult, or false religion, then show them, teach people the truth, Jesus is the Truth, thats all there is to it. But, go believe what you want, say what you want, I told you about Jesus, I have told you, thats all I can really do.

How does that justify your comparison of people that follow nonChristian religions to Nazis?

The Nazi's did not think they were bad or wrong, they followed their charismatic leader, whom they thought would bring them great things, they followed his religious teachings, Arianism, etc., it was all grand and wonderful, until the reality hit. This is the way of false religions, they seem right, but they are not. If they say you get to Heaven, not through Christ's atoning death, but through our church or organization alos, and our rules and our writings, and good works, and this and that, then they are not right, and they are not leading people to Heaven. They are leading people astray, to an eternity in Hell, apart from the Father, and that is far worse than what the Nazi's did.

Willful ignorance is no excuse in this day and age. We have more information at our fingertips than we have ever had before.

And he is most definitely spreading lies. There is no way to classify something like "Muslims worship a moon god" as something other than a blatant lie, despite what people would like to think otherwise.

You seem to have alot of faith in Jack Chick to believe he is honest and doesn't misrepresent people. I've looked through many of these tracts and I can say for certain that the dipiction of a certain group of people (a group to which I belong) is quite misrepresented.

I don't believe I have any words that can appropriately convey my disgust. You think that someone following a nonChristian religion is worse than killing millions of people?

Its funny how everyone here is tolerant except toward Christians. If you believe in Christ, who said the TRUTH, that HE is the way, which does exclude other religions, then you are automaticaly intollerant for being a Christian. Well, so be it, if that is how you judge me, then so be it. I am tolerant in that I agree you have a right to deny Christ and believe in whatever you want. Go ahead, thats fine with me. I am intollerant in that I will not ever back down from proclaiming the truth, that Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away our sins, and it because of His death on the cross only that we may have eternal life, freely, by trusting in Him.

 

[joeboonda]

Okay, folks, peace to you, and I have to leave for the evening. I respect your views on Mr. Chick. I am a little more laid back than he is, as I think if you trust Christ, whatever denomination you are in, for your salvation, you are saved. If you trust in the Christ of the Bible and not, as Paul says, 'another Christ', which is man-made. Later.

Yes, but there are different kinds of ignorance. There are people who honestly don’t know any better, and there are those like this man who not only willfully preserve their own ignorance, but also make it their goal in life to spread ignorance.

But yes, you are right, we must be tolerant of those who try to spread the truth through cartoon.


This is my favourite Chick Track. - Dead to Rights.

I'm tolerant towards Christians .... until they (and this only seems to be radical minority of Christians, thank goodness. They really do give the rest a bad name), start bashing me over the head with their Bible and telling me I'm going to hell unless I become like them!

 

[mr.guy]

I was a little shocked to see "battlefront" plastered about his site. Reminds me that i ought to log on and check in on my personalized "battleplan".

EDIT: I'm wrong; it wasn't "battlefront" refered to, but "battlecry"; there are neither any references to "battlefront" on chick's site nor links, allusions, etc. to the battlefront site/movement. But it still makes me wanna go and check out their forums, so there!

Guess you forgot about all the islam bashing threads we had, if you want to see where religions are truely mocked day in and day out, go to CF, its repulsive how they treat atheists especially.Did you forget the recent threads mocking scientology?

Seriously its not the christians we have problems with,

its those who lie to win an arguement.
