Chick Tracts' Lisa: A Disgusting Comic - Comic Tropes (Episode 13)

[@70sman]

Doctors actually have a duty to report CSA. By not reporting it, this doctor is breaking the law.

[@capitalistraven]

In Texas (where I live) EVERYONE is a mandatory reporter regardless of profession. If you're aware of child or elder abuse or neglect you are required to report it by law.

[@jonnda]

Maybe the doc needs someone to preach to him about his crime.

[@TheWretchedOwl]

Sure, he broke the law, but that’s only the law of man, and clearly this doctor believes in a higher law, and Jesus never said anything about obeying the laws of man... you know, except when he did.

@VT Alt The postage for a first-class stamp was never 17 cents. It jumped from $0.15 to $0.18 in March 1981. I think a presorted rate is depicted in the Chick Tract. I couldn't find historical presorted rate info at USPS so the ultimate date for the animation is still a mystery to me.

It helped keep myself together through my toughest times, letting my imagination go and knowing morality without the subservient guilt. The care package he did?

[@NovaSaber]

Chick did the "easily convinced" thing so often that I can only assume that he must have actually believed that the most common reason for not believing in his version of Christianity was not having heard it explained before.

[@Agamemnon2]

That's a very common belief among certain evangelical groups. That the only reason people reject Jesus is because they haven't heard his teachings.

[@sirelfinjedi]

Apparently, he was converted while listening to a radio evangelist. So... yeah, he probably did.

[@jerkfudgewater147]

No it’s actually more evil than you’d suspect, (ASK ABOUT WHAT I’M ABOUT TO TELL YOU) christians believe that if you never hear about Jesus and you die after a good life you get stuck in limbo (a boring middle ground but better than hell) but if a christian gives you a shitty pitch about how jesus will let you fuck children and you don’t convert because your religion is against incestuous pedophilia then you are sentenced to hell forever and ever and ever and ever... because christians operate on the principle of “be evil, without exception” Oh you want to argue? Who fought against giving out free healthcare like Jesus? THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT Who fought against giving condoms to AIDs ravaged africa in the 80s and 90s? THE CHRISTIANS RIGHT Who currently supports a president who’s boarder guards are torturing children too young to know what they did wrong? THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT Who is fighting every day to make sure raped women with diseased babies sure to die shortly after birth must go through every bit of that awful trauma? THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT the list goes on and on, without question they are the single most evil thing on the planet... they have the power to help but instead choose to ignore Jesus’ “let the man with 2 tunics give 1 to the man with none” and instead hold onto their money while their neighbors suffer and die around them of easily preventable problems while simultaneously trying to make sure their souls are sent to hell instead of limbo. Pure F’ing Evil

[@sirelfinjedi]

@@jerkfudgewater147 you seem pretty angry, but your anger might be misguided. First, you're equating the "Christian right" (a political movement) with Christianity (a diverse faith). Not the same thing. And I think you're confusing limbo for the Roman Catholic belief in purgatory. The Christian Right is largely made up of protestants, not Catholics, and they don't believe in that. I won't argue that some Christians are wrong, and that evil has been done in the name of Jesus, but that's true of all greatly influential people. And honestly, no one has been more influential or misrepresented than Jesus in the western world. But you're lumping a LOT of people into a blank statement.

[@pomponi0]

Chick also did the thing where apparently, wicked people for some reason have never, ever heard of Jesus. They can be white southern bikers and they'll be like "Hold on, who is this Jesus guy you're talking about?"

[@chainyrabbit]

I guess the moral to the story is you can do whatever you want to anyone you want without any consequence, as long as you accept Jesus afterwards

[@CelestialWoodway]

That is what Christianity teaches. LOL

[@astrocitizen]

"accept"

[@LadyDeirdre]

That is not what Christianity teaches. The acceptance of Jesus is necessary but not sufficient: repentance is also necessary, and there's no real sign of repentance shown in any of the characters.

[@Ketutar]

What do you mean, "afterwards"? Some "Christians" think they can do anything they want to anyone as long as they "believe", because everything Christians do is God's will.

[@LadyDeirdre]

@@Ketutar That is based in what's called Calvinism. To simplify somewhat, Calvinism teaches that literally everything is foreordained, including who will and will not be saved. Supposedly, we also have free will, though how this squares with everything being foreordained is beyond me. Calvinism is only really a strong thing in parts of the US, despite originating in Switzerland.

[@Kornknealious]

Not only is the character, Henry disgusting..but that is the worst doctor in the world for not turning Henry in right away. As for Henry buying the whole Jesus schtick is that he recognizes an easy way out.

[@SonicUnderground316]

I actually thought the doctor was preaching to him so he would do the right thing and turn himself, at first! You know, letting him know that basically he could be redeem in the eye of God but he has to face punishment and repent for ultimately, what he did was horribly wrong but know just a prayer will fix you right up.

What most concerns me about this story is that almost all of the tracts are intended for some type of person to see themselves in the main character. You are supposed to see the tract aimed at your demographic and go "Oh shit! I'v got the same problems as the dude in this story! I was worried but now this comic has told me how to fix this by turning to Jesus." So one day, one of the people who makes these tracts decided that they had a gap in the product line and dudes who gave their 10 year old daughters herpes were slipping through that crack. Which seems like the sort of thing that only someone abusing their daughter would come up with.

God doesn`t want his children bagging for food, I have never had to bag for anything, the whole time I`ve been a Christian, from the age of eight years old, have I gone hungry ? you might ask, sure I have, but God is his wisdom, and understanding, gave me what I needed, at the right time, every time, we tend not to see it , though, when were going through the trails, but looking back, it becomes obviously clear he did, sir / mam . which ever you may be, please dont get offended, but a sandwich wont heal the sin sick soul, that we all have, because you`ll, we`ll, be needing another sandwich tomorrow, but God can heal the longing of your soul, where you`ll never feel empty again, and he will change your desires, from the lusts for the things of the flesh, to the desire for the eternal things of the Spirit, so the question is, do you want an eternal fix, ?, or a temporal fix?, the Lord said, Seek ye first the kingdom of God , and his righteousness, and all these things, ( you have need of ) will be added unto you ", sincerely R.

Fun religious fact! If your a southern baptist (like the guy who made the comic) or any other christian denomination where salvation requires faith and not acts (most protestant sects), then all the characters in the story go strait to heaven. As long as you believe in Jesus and feel bad about sinning you are golden. Fun religious fact part 2! Child molesting is not prohibited by the bible. Also, although the bible has a long list of family members it is unacceptable to bang, daughter is not in it (though it does seem implicitly forbidden by other, more general passages). So the only sin committed in this story that is explicitly condemned by the bible is adultery. If the main character had just married his daughter first then he wouldn't have had anything to worry about. Isn't Christianity fun!?!

@@outsider344 I recall in the King James Bible that incest between father and daughter is punishable by - wait for it - death. That is they both die.

[@augustinushipponensis3021]

Augustine could not have been a Roman Catholic Heretic since the Roman Catholic Church did not exist in the way you perceive it to be during the 4th century of our era. Certainly, you may not agree with everything he taught but what you profess is also different, yet, I don't call you a heretic. I think you're using the term too loosely because it doesn't fit _your_ interpretation of Christianity. Besides, you believed on Jesus Christ and your saved, right? Well, then continue living like Christ instead of trying to find a debate. Besides, debates are pointless due to our personal bias and human experience. I won't change your mind anymore than you'll change mine. This video is really about Jack Chick's treatment of the character of the father. The man needs to be thrown in prison. Even though he filled out his cosmic paperwork with Christ, establishing his faith and conversion, he must pay for the crime. If you had a daughter and discovered that some bloke sexually molested her, I highly doubt you'll be like: Well, he gave his life to Christ so I forgive him...go ahead and start preaching the gospel. No, more than likely you'll forgive him (as a Christian should) and then call the police and allow justice according to our law to be served. That, or you'll beat the crap out of him and then call the cops...which, I admit, I would probably do.

[@CelestialWoodway]

Have you ever thought about how bizarre the crucifixion story is? Imagine the all-powerful, all-knowing creator of the universe sitting on his magnificent throne in heaven. He looks down onto earth and says to himself: Those evil humans down on earth. I hate what they are doing. All this sin... Since I am all-knowing I know exactly what the humans are doing and I understand exactly why they commit each sin. Since I created the humans in my own image and personally programmed human nature into their brains, I am the direct author of all of this sin. The instant I created them I knew exactly what would happen with every single human being right down to the nanosecond level for all eternity. If I didn't like how it was going to turn out, I could have simply changed them when I created them. And since I am perfect, I know exactly what I am doing. But ignore all that. I hate all these people doing exactly what I perfectly designed them to do and knew they would do from the moment I created them. I HATE IT! I tried killing all the humans and animals once in the flood. That certainly did not fix the problem. So here's what I am going to do. I will artificially inseminate a virgin. She will give birth to an incarnated version of me. The humans will eventually crucify and kill the incarnated me. That, finally, will make me happy. Yes, sending myself down and having the humans crucify me -- that will satisfy me. I feel much better now. It makes no sense, does it? Why would an all-knowing being need to have humans kill himself (Jesus is God, after all) to make himself happy? Especially since it is a perfect God who set the whole thing in motion exactly the way he wanted it? The whole story of the crucifixion is absurd from top to bottom if you actually stop to think about it.

Someone might have already mentioned this to you, but to be fair to the Southern Baptists, AFAIK Jack Chick is a Pentecostal. The most succinct Chick example of how the Pentecostal religion is flawed, was a tract about two characters in the Old West. Black Bart, a murderer, repents and goes to heaven--the sheriff, unsaved, who caught Black Bart, dies and goes to hell. Good works? Nope! Just pray to God (in our very specific way) and get saved!

[@RAMBINI1]

Well said David, it is also a fact, that when Jack Chick began to print the Alberto series of Crusader comics and the "Are Roman Catholics Christians"? tracts, the Southern Baptist Churches, along with most all the other once Protestant churches, stopped buying His tracts and began to reject Him and His tract ministry. Even "So-called" Christian Book stores stopped selling His material, or kept it tucked away in a drawer so as NOT to offend anyone, while still selling them to those who asked for them,( so as NOT to lose any revenue) all the while denouncing His Anti-Catholic stance as well as His Homophobic, Anti-Muslim, Anti-Sinner's tracts, the list goes on and on. There are a few Southern Baptist churches left, who have NOT bowed the knee to the pope and his other idols, they call Patron Saints.

I'm in total agreement with You Dave, but there are a few that have not bowed the knee to the pope, as I said earlier, although, those that have not bowed, have had to remove the title of the SBC from their church name and affiliation. I myself attend a Baptist church that still preaches from the KJV, ( the authorized version, NOT the New KJV) they didn't have Chick tracts when I started there 5 years ago, but . . . they do now!! Praise God! Yes, the SBC has lifted that Baptism way up there, almost as high as the Church of Christ, but, we both know, that even when Elijah was saying He was the only one, God had to remind Him of the other 700 who had not "Bowed the knee to Baal, either.

@ you can't have it both ways. If you believe in the bible then you believe in its source. Because that same Pope you're against, he and the rest of the Catholic church are the reason the bible is complied the way it is. So you can believe whatever flavor of Christianity you want, but none of them exist without Catholicism. Even now I'll never get you anti-catholic people.

[@outsider344]

@@LupineShadowOmega Its not though. Catholic bibles include the deuterocanonical books, which aren't in protestant bibles. Also, the biblical translations approved by the catholic church are all based on the latin vulgate, where as protestant translations like the NIV are based on manuscripts older than the sources used to produce vulgate. So its hard to say the catholic church is the source of protestant bibles as they are substantively different, and even the books canonized by the council of Trent were the books which were popular at the time. So its hard to say Catholicism specifically is responsible for those ether. Don't mean to say that the person you replied to is right though. Their writing style makes it look like they might be insane.

[@LupineShadowOmega]

@@outsider344 even with that in mind historically it was still the Catholic church that turned Christianity into the cultural juggernaut that it has become. They were the ones that introduced the concept to most of the western world. I wasn't implying at all that the religions are identical, but its more than a bit disingenuous to pretend that the culture put forth by the Catholic church that has spread to pretty much every corner of this world, didn't lay the ground work for almost every off-shoot that Christianity has. Heck, even now when people think of what Jesus himself looks like, it is more often than not the version put forth by renaissance artists, usually at the behest of Catholic patrons. It definitely isn't the greco-Roman one without the beard.

So I started watching this thinking "oh I love chick-tracks, they're so disturbingly hateful" but I had to stop watching this video half way through because it went further than even I was prepared for. So, if you're stats say "people watching this video bugged out at 11 minutes" its because the Chick Track is so awful I felt sick and angry and had to move on to the next video. Which reminds me a bit about how powerful comic books can be, and how underestimated they can be at conveying information for good or ill. So with that in mind I have a concept I'd love to hear your opinion on, broadly speaking censorship and comics. Big budget movies never got the heavy handed censors that comics did, and I think thats in part because commercial investors prevented big budget films from being too far from the commercial center. But comic books don't have that huge financial upfront cost, and can convey information just as well or perhaps better. I'd really be interested in your take on the Boiled Angel case, and if you can find a copy, maybe review that comic since it is so historic ('only artist in america to ever be forbidden from making art') and I'd like your views on why comics attract censors the same way music, video games and movies do but with comics historically the censors get much more power.

When you played Henry, you kinda sounded like Pops from Regular Show. Pretty disgusting comic, indeed. Happy that you helped these people at the end with sandwiches. :-)

*One can argue that WW2 has also brought out authors with literary impacts. Military veterans-turned-writers such as George Orwell, William Golding, Ernest Hemingway, Jack Chick, etc are such examples*

Indeed!

I remember my friend and I were attending a school at a technical college. We decided to leave some tracts in the break room for anyone who wanted them. One day we went to have lunch and we found that someone had left a bunch of Chick tracts in the break room next to ours. I haven't seen them since I was a kid so I picked one up. It was awful! The art was bad, the story was ridiculous, and the doctrine was way off. My friend and I both agreed it was ridiculous. If you want to read Christian fiction pick up a copy of Pilgrim's Progress or a Frank Peretti novel, just skip the the Chick tracts. The tract that was read in the video is disgusting!🤢🤮

Best COMIC TROPES episode! 👍 My favorite. Anything els comes second for me. Truly agree with everything that was said here, ( not in the comic). Well done my dude, very well done. 🤙

[@Celibatnik]

Litterally the best episode ever! We can all read comic books all we like but we still walk out into the real world.

[@raydillon]

Just saw the end, too. It was wonderful seeing you giving out care packages to homeless people after that. Well done, man.

Fun fact: Chick Tracts are actually banned in Canada as hate literature. (Didn't stop some dude from handing them out on the street at a Fringe Theatre Festival here a couple years ago, though)

"We've got wonderful news, Lisa! Your daddy and I will never hurt you again!" "Yeah? Well, I've got even better news! Jesus was just here and he gave me THIS." *Lisa pulls out a .38 and unloads it into her parents, reloads, and does it again. After the smoke clears, Jesus steps out from behind a curtain* "Great job, Lisa! Now all we have to do is get rid of these bodies. Here--take this bone saw and do exactly as I say."

Why do I picture Caddicarus as Jesus doing something like this? I mean it makes it more funny.

John C. Reilly's character in the film Magnolia has an interesting view. He says, "Sometimes people need a little understanding...sometimes they need to be forgiven....and sometimes....they need to go to jail."

I used to pick up and browse these mini comics every time I come across them, not for spiritual reasons, but for entertainment. And I've found them overseas, as well, in bus stops, train stations, and even bars. Years later, I found out that their office is located right here in my neighborhood in Rancho Cucamonga.

[@JoanieDoeShadow]

... the time and place to witness to someone like Henry is during a prison ministry, not while confronting him on the evidence and testimony against his abhorrent repeated abuse of his daughter. Another trope of Chick is trying to include so many issues & sins in one "story" that they become so conflated & muddied that it looses all the gusto intended and only people who hear those topics associated with each other on a regular basis in Christian media and sermons aren't confused by the bizarre mixture.

[@lagbait3076]

Having come from the south I've ever only ran into these once as a kid, something about a soldier being killed and facing the consequences of hell. The fear of God message seems to be the tactic. I've always been partial to the those who preach loudest tend to have more to hide variety. Can only imagine what sins these chick tract people have done to warrant this amount of preaching.

[@timf7413]

I grew up in a fairly religious area (sort of the northern tip of the Bible belt) and I honestly never ran into a Chick Track "in the wild" until I was in college.

@@timf7413 "Oh look at these relgious nuts trying to use comic books get someone to goin their baptist cult! Ha ha what a joke! I mean there's so much better out there, like why read Jack Chick when I can read Frank Miller?" You might say that, but one day you will experience more sorrow and remorse than ever. Proverbs 1 24Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; 25But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: 26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; 27When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. 28Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: 29For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: How many times have you rejected that hand reaching out? Even if you are "religious," continue reading..... Matthew 7 21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Don't be that person! Please continue reading. Can I help you KNOW that you are saved? This what you must first realize: Romans 3:23 - For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; That's you. You must realize that you have personally sinned against God. John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Romans 6 23For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Acts 3:19 - Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; You have to believe it from the heart. Romans 10 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved Here is the gospel straight and simple: 1. Admit you are a sinner that can only be saved by the blood of Jesus Christ 2. Believe that Jesus died for and covered all of your sins and rose again. 3. Say to God that Jesus Christ he is your saviour. Please let me know. I am praying for you.
