Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

That no matter how righteous you believe you are, there are ramifications to your actions with religion. It's very easy to understand and be comfortable with those beliefs, but with others you are quite literally messing with their identities who they are.
My family is deeply religious. I personally don't care if they believe in God or not. I focus on individual teachings, that gay people aren't evil, that they can be religious and believe contradictory things to what others believe, that it's all deeply personal
There’s also ramifications to ruining one’s religious beliefs, as this comic shows.
If you’re going to completely and utterly destroy someone’s entire outlook on life (and afterlife or whatever), I’d argue that you have a moral responsibility to help them transition and be there for them. Not be a total asshole like the dude in the comic.
A good addition, I agree. I know my mother draws her strength from the church. Without it I'm sure she would be depressed at home. It would require someone showing her how to be self reliant and grabbing satisfaction from that to get her going again
