#263 – The Word

I actually love the King James version of the bible. As I’ve said before, it’s poetry. However, as I’ve told my daughter, any book contains the spin introduced by the hand that penned it. It’s the job of the reader to ferret out the true meaning. With the Bible to claim that only one version is “true” is… well… a bit of a tough nut to swallow.

It’s funny. The last panel took me some time to do, as I felt bad about inserting my own words into the Bible. Weird. In any case, two comics in a row on the same topic smacks of continuity, so I suspect it’s time to move on to something else. Perhaps, some holiday ruminations…

#262 – Burning With a Holy Flame

In a bid to prove that “South” isn’t the only Carolina with some stupid residents, we have these yahoos from North Carolina. Once again, we see people holding up the “If you don’t like it, burn it” flag. You have to wonder what they really hope to achieve. I know my first instinct when I hear of a book burning is to find out what’s being burned and immediately add it to my reading list. Hmmm… but maybe that’s their plan. Maybe this isn’t a group of ignorant bumpkins, but rather some rather genius viral marketeers! One can hope…

I thought for today’s contest entry, I’d introduce you to a cute little comic I found. Fun for all, but especially full of the funnies for those of us with parental experience. It’s like ‘M’ is given his own world every saturday. (Comments aren’t allowed on the comics page, so construct the code with strip number and page number.)
