Looks like someone has tried to one-up those famous Jack Chick tracts, with modern (almost manga-like) comics that touch on the same themes. In fact, looks like a lot of the arguments are the same, especially in the "evolution" one. Check out:

I wonder how Jack Chick will deal with "Song of Songs". If that isn't porn, I don't know what is... :)

The Homosexuality Cartoon says that because they aren't born that way, gays should not be eligible for civil rights protection. Christians and Democrats aren't born that way, yet under federal law, they receive protection against discrimination. Whether or not the gays are born that way is irrelevant to the discussion of trying to decide if they should be afforded protection.
As far as the twists and turns of logic that these cartoons make, I think my favorite is: We know gays are not born that way because in the late 1970's no one made the claim that gays were born that way so their claiming that they are born that way now is nothing but public relations puffery. [I need to sit down because I am so dizzy from following that]
I also want to note the subtle accustation of child molesting: "whether you are a homosexual or have just been suckered into a few homosexual acts by some predator..." [all emphasis in original text]

Those have been around a good 7 years or so. Funny thing is, they were originally draw Marvel style - these choads actually redrew them Manga-style. That's freakin' classic.
By the way, in the originals "pornography" comic, it was the black family that was immoral. Guess they decided to correct their mistake this time around.

Good stuff, that. I like the evolution comic that claims it's a racist concept that creates racism, and also throws out the same old canards that the creationists have been spouting for decades.
But until they draw a comic about how Dungeons and Dragons is evil (or perhaps video games, to be more modern), then it'll never equal Jack Chick.

Truly charming. Oh dog, I can't even stand to read the one on Evilution - it's so full of B.S. that it's just intolerable.

That was pretty bad, yes. They're really all intolerable.
I like the one about how Bibles are going to stop school violence.

What????? They have a link on their front page to send bibles to the army and the marines! Why would they do that do they want them to put down their arms and get killed! Why do they hate freedom!.
(oops forgot to hit caps lock, you get the Idea though).

Maybe the Bible makes the forces of Satan (non-Christians, school children, cats) less able to kill, and the forces of God (soldiers, Jack Chick, dogs) more able to kill?
IS THIS BETTER?
