Westboro Baptists aren’t a religious group, and I don’t think they really believe their banter.

“Plus I’m pretty sure they’re mostly family and have like 70 members even according to their records.
Or so.”

Right on both counts, but like Chick there are those that believe their nonsense.
 
Dark Dungeon is so bad it’s great. I never laughed so hard in my life.
 
take out the pentagram and that looks like a sanctuary… the joys of neo know- nothingism
 
I was given a Chick tract by a Baptist when I first converted to Catholicism 12 or so years ago. Yes he took it seriously.
 
Jimmy Akin did a tract to answer Chick Tracts in the Jack Chick style. I wish I could find it. It seems to have disappeared.

A lot of people- mostly evangelical types- had a lot of belief is emerging satanism and witchcraft, ritualistic abuse, etc.

The McMasters Preschool child abuse case in California was part of the hysteria. “Talk Back” with Bob Larson was a radio program during the same period. Jack Chick didn’t invent his stories at all, he was repeating and reporting - in comic book form- what others were talking about during his time
 
Honestly, I’ve met more folks than I care to that certainly take them seriously.
 
i’d love to see it… i feel like Maximilian Kolbe would love the concept… just not the ideology contained within.
 
And the moral panic that went around in the 80s was bogus. Rather, the reasoning behind the moral panic was bogus.

The great 1980s Dungeons & Dragons panic

Dungeons & Dragons, which celebrates its 40th birthday this year, was once accused of encouraging Satanism, espionage and anti-social behaviour.

i thought herpes was curable, but thats rather beside the point…
 
their classic “rock and roll is from satan” line is always amusing
 
Well, I played D&D once. Now I’m kind of disappointed that there wasn’t an elaborate ritual.
 
I use to own several chick tracks when I was a protestants kid. I did not have any anti Catholic ones. I remember one where a Christian man confronted a Muslim man and told him Allah was really the moon good that pagan Arabs worshiped and the Muslim man converted in a manner on minutes. Like it would be that easy ever lol

One scared the heck out of me. It was a tract about satanism and their beliefs. I was afraid to go to sleep after reading that one but it was not over the top insane like some other tracts apparently. I was just a little kid so it was the equivalent of seeing a scary horror movie to me.
