It's amazing. But apparently gay people have monsters growing out of their necks! Or maybe it's dentists. Dentists have monsters growing out of their necks. And they rape angels! All the time, it's all about the angel-rape.

And G-d, despite having written a Bible full of tons of stuff, has an amazing preoccupation with homosexuality. Not shrimp, and not charity, and certainly not loving thy neighbor as thyself, it's all about the sex.

(I suspect that this says more of the minds of the readers than the writer)

Oh it IS brilliant.

The most brilliant thing, in my opinion, is the transliteration of Samhain into "Saman." One letter off from Satan. Of course, it's pronounced smething like "Soo-whain." Unfortunately, there's no entry for the holiday/diety on Merriam-Webster.com, or I'd hook you up with a pronounciation guide.

It also belies the anti-Catholic stance of Jack Chick. You see, St. Michael defeated Satan, not Jesus. I'm not sure if this is Cannon or Apocrypha, but it is generally accepted angelology. I mean, if it wasn't well known before, it is now after "Gangs of New York's" opening scene. (I love that movie's opening... it has the weird "Pagan Christian" feeling one gets from reading Beowulf).

I don't know that much about the history of the British Isles to vouche for the human sacrifice details, except that the druids did perform it and the non-Christian Romans did what they could to wipe it out. I'm sure Jack Chick's facts are distorted, simply because they're Jack Chick's facts (e.g., he said "IHS" on the Catholic Host stands for "Isis, Horus, Set").
