Masons = Satanists

[Patrick M]

I was in the Cracker Barrel tonight and noticed a delightful little publication in the bathroom. Luckily for you, this enlightening publication is available online:

So what should he do?

Renounce Masonry and repent.

Chick tracts are hugely entertaining. I rejoice whenever I find one under my windshield wiper.

Ok, I've never seen those before. Scary, yet entertaining at the same time.

I've seen several of 'em over the years, mostly left under the wiper or in a restroom or hotel room or whatever. (Once I was the target of a lazy Chick tract distributor, and wound up with a whole pile of 'em. I'm sure my fellow employees at a previous job were wondering how they ended up in the internal mail system.)

They're great, and almost always the exact same formula -- a happy-go-lucky person is warned that their seemingly harmless activities/opinions will surely lead them to a gruesomely depicted violent torment. (In the case of this one, death at the hands of brutal yet oddly honorable terrorists.) The poor sap craps his/her pants in fear and immediately gives his/her life over to Christ, at which point a vacant smile is permanently plastered on his/her face.

I didn't know there was a web site, though. The wonders of our modern age!

If Masons are a bunch of Satanists, how come they raise millions of dollars every year for free children's hospitals and other charities?

It baffles me why some Christians are so intolerant. My wife and I bought a house recently, and one of the first things some hatemonger left on our doorstep was an anti-Gay pamphlet.

Now we've got people bashing one of the most benevolent fraternal organizations in the country.

These people need their priorities straightened out.

Bigoted, intolerant tracts found in a place called 'Cracker Barrel'? Who'd have thunk it?

For some reason Tom Tomorrow has a link to Chick on his blog. Featured is This Was Your Life. What got my interest, though, was the See also with African characters link.

Umm, ok.

I always suspected the genitals would be first to burn up upon re-entry in Earth's atmosphere.

If you lead a shitty life, then semi-consciously squeeze your son's hand on your death bed, Jesus will save you:





Born Wild!

Not sure if this belongs here or in the Conservapedia thread, but...

Jack Thomas Chick (b. 13 April 1924) is an American Christian fundamentalist well known for Chick Publications, commonly called "Chick tracts." His tracts cover various aspects of the Christian faith, including the principles of tolerance and love as well as the Catholics' satanist conspiracy to overthrow God's reign on earth. Or...something.[1] His claims about the Jesuits, for instance, include that they were responsible for the creation of the Qur'an, they tutored Karl Marx, started the Soviet Union and even got the Tsar's gold as a reward.[2] Jesuits controlled the Gestapo and were responsible for the Holocaust, and that all this is being deliberately withheld from the American people because of the influence of the Catholic Church on the media.[3] As a general rule, his tracts read like the ramblings of a paranoid schizophrenic and make Pat Robertson look mellowed out in comparison. Of course, not even Jack can compare to Fred Phelps.

Etc.

A House stenographer and well-known employee calmly took to a microphone and began screaming.

"Do not be deceived. God shall not be mocked. A House divided cannot stand," she said, according to a House GOP aide. After a few seconds, she was escorted out by the sergeant-at-arms, but an audio recording captured the rest of her rant.

"He will not be mocked, He will not be mocked, (don't touch me) He will not be mocked. The greatest deception here, is that this is not one nation under God. It never was. Had it been ... it would not have been ... No, it would not have been ... the Constitution would not have been written by Free Masons ... and go against God. You cannot serve two masters. You cannot serve two masters. Praise be to God, Lord Jesus Christ."

There's a big billboard in town that says "Be not fooled, God is not mocked" or something like that. Galatians 6:7 in any case, just like this -- it's there for several months. Must be a thing.
