Join us this week on "Honest to God" as we delve into the philosophy of St. Thomas Aquinas, a theologian I encountered in graduate school. We then dive into some fascinating and sometimes bizarre discussions, including: Young Earth Creationism: Is the world truly only 6,000 years old? We examine the allegorical nature of Genesis and the challenges of reconciling faith and science. Adam and Eve's Bellybuttons: A playful thought experiment about the origins of humanity and the concept of souls. The Importance of Deeper Questions: A reminder to look beyond our survival-driven lives and ponder our purpose and existence. Evangelization vs. Apologetics: How to approach controversial topics with love and understanding rather than judgment. Flat Earth Theories: A deep dive into the beliefs and "evidence" presented by flat earthers, including their views on the UN flag, flight paths, and the nature of the sun. Conspiracy Theories & Christianity: Unpacking the connections between fundamentalist Christianity and outlandish theories, such as the Vatican's alleged control of the world, lizard people, and Elvis as a Kentucky pastor. The World of Jack Chick: Examining the controversial work of Jack Chick, whose comics promote conspiracy theories and anti-Catholic sentiments. Join us for a captivating conversation that challenges our assumptions and encourages us to think critically about faith, science, and the world around us.

You probably don't know what The Pooh's Adventures Wiki is, but as of this episode, it has over 80,000 pages. Comprised mostly of fanon crossovers with other popular media franchises and embarassing self-inserts, this is a wiki where eventually all of popular culture can exist parallel to Tigger. This week, The F Plus enters the Ryaniverse.
In this episode, I read a chapter from my upcoming book "Babel to Babylon: Exposing Satan's Deception." We discuss Billy Graham, the Jesuits and the Roman Catholic Church, Jack Chick, and much more.

Questions Covered: 02:22 – I was at a gun show in Idaho not long ago and one of the vendors was a born again Christian group handing out Jack Chick tracts. I walked past them fairly quickly, not because I didn’t want to engage but because I was trying to catch up to my son-in-law. As I was walking back up the aisle they were on I was distracted by a vendor selling antique rifles, some going back as far as the Revolutionary War, when someone said to me “thank you for your service!” I turned to my left to see a guy, about my age, and he repeated himself. I thanked him but explained I hadn’t been in the military. He looked surprised then said something about the color of my eyes (hazel/green) and when I realized who I was talking to I knew I was stuck. It was the Pastor of the group handing out the JC Tracts. Long story short he asked me if I knew I was saved. I said yes. He asked if I knew I was going to heaven I said it’s my hope, but that ultimately was up to me. Then he commences to break out a green, hand held, KJV military Bible (one that I have), reads me some scripture, and asks if I will pray with him. I said of course! We commence the praying and I realize this was my altar call…I was being made born again. After the prayer he congratulated me…and I started to feel uneasy. It’s bothered me since. I know I hadn’t renounced my Catholic faith because the prayer was pretty generic, but there’s a part of me that thinks I made a mistake. Did I, or am I being overly scrupulous? 05:47 – How did authorship work in the ancient and medieval periods? For example, I heavily doubt that Homer made a fortune selling copies of The Iliad and The Odyssey or that Plato sold copies of The Republic. How were ancient writings circulated? I imagine having to hand copy every word from every scroll would put a damper on how accessible they would be in markets. Did every individual who copies the Odyssey have to copy down “Written by Homer” with it? What if someone wanted to take the same Odyssey and pass it off as their original work? Also, how would the average man living in these periods know which authors (who are trying to pass information down) are genuine and which authors are hacks? 16:26 – I just learned about Hilazon blue. Is there a checklist of all the things needed for rebuilding the Third Temple, and what’s left? 18:36 – You have mentioned before that God could have created a universe that appeared to be eternal, that is, without a beginning (I hope I have that right…). I do not understand this, as being “created” would seem to require a beginning (otherwise, God would not need to create it). Or are you saying that it merely has the “appearance” of always existing, but was created? In which case, does that mean that God is deliberately deceiving? 22:01 – Why do we restrict Protestants from receiving the Eucharist except in certain limited circumstances (grave necessity)? Children baptized into the Catholic faith are able to receive the Eucharist before being confirmed. There is no difference (as far as I am aware) between a valid Catholic baptism and a valid Protestant baptism, so there is no ontological difference between a baptized-but-unconfirmed Catholic and a baptized-but-unconfirmed Protestant. Belief cannot be the answer, since many Protestants (while in RCIA and before their confirmation) have the same faith as Catholics. Is it prudential? 28:34 – Why is the Protestant account for the canon of scripture untenable? 34:05 – How will we be able to interact in heaven with our loved ones without a body? (That is, until they are resurrected.) 35:44 – John 20:22, our Lord breathed on the apostles and gave them the Holy Spirit. Thomas was not with them. When did Thomas receive the Holy Spirit? 40:47 – What is a good source to use to get authentic news from what th…

Christmas can be a tough time of year for many people. Sometimes spending time with family is the challenge, and sometimes just not spending time with anybody can be the challenge. In those dark, difficult times, mankind has historically turned to songs and literature and poetry to find a beacon of light, guiding us through the darkness and into the light. Unfortunately for Jack Chick, this is The F Plus and so instead we're making him read some more godawful Christmas poetry so you can find glee in his misfortune. This week, oh god no its happening again!
Oops, it has been a year... Maybe some of you still keep up with this feed? We're back, and it's October, so what better way to celebrate than with a Doctober episode!

This week, Chaz is joined by the host of American Hysteria. Chelsey talks about their series on Jack Chick, why he was kind of punk, and how Chick's work was so impactful that it branched outside the church.
We conclude our series on Jack Chick with more of his dangerous connections, his final tracts and the last days of the man that would be Chick.
This week we go further into the life of Jack Chick and discuss the horrible people he worked with.
If you happen to fall within a certain (fairly broad) age range, there is a very good chance that somewhere, at some point, you have encountered Chick Tracts. Jack Chick's horrific, over-the-top, feverish warnings about what happens if you don't accept Christ before you DIE!!!! have literally littered city streets and coffee shop tabletops for decades. Chick Tracts are outlandish and, if you don't happen to be an ultra fundamentalist end times Christian, deeply offensive. But they are also interesting and, from an artistic perspective, clever and accomplished. In fact, purely in terms of how many eyes have seen his work, Jack Chick is one of the most successful artists ever. American Hysteria host Chelsey Weber-Smith recently released an in-depth, thoughtful, and thorough look at Chick's life and work, including his use of urban legend and horror tropes, and she joined us to talk about what made Chick tick, his theology, and why he's so beloved and despised (at the same time) by horror fans.

This week we begin our series on Jack Chick. From his early life, to his first few tracts.
On Today's second part of a two-part episode, Sadie and Gavi discuss Alberto Rivera, one of Jack Chick's most trusted sources for the conspiracy theories that he proliferated in his comic books. Alberto Rivera alleges a large-scale global conspiracy theory in which the Roman Catholic Church seeks world domination. Turns out, just like everything else in Rivera's life, his conspiracy allegations are stolen. Find out from where on today's episode!Tune in next week for discussion of banned children's toys in fundamentalism!TW: In general we talk about a lot of potentially triggering topics on this show, including but not limited to suicide and mental health, racism, misogyny, PTSD and PTSD symptoms, child abuse, mental, physical, and sexual abuse, and spiritual abuse including guilt, shame, and fear. In most episodes we'll mention at least a few of these topics, but we try very hard to avoid graphic detail unless it's relevant to the story we're telling, and we do our best to give the audience a heads-up before going into detail on any of these topics. This episode contains mention of self-harm and suicidal ideation – as always we'll try to be as clinical and respectful as possible when discussing this, and I will give you a heads-up before we get there. This episode will also contain discussion of historical sexual abuse in the church, and a large amount of racist or zenophobic antisemitic and/or Islamophobic conspiracy theories. I also want to recognize, any time we talk about the Catholic Church we have to give recognition to the crimes against humanity committed in residential schools. Those are not the topic of our discussion for today, so if that's a trigger for anyone, we won't be getting into it in detail. This episode is NOT “The church has never done any crimes” it is simply “The church has not done THESE PARTICULAR crimes because THIS PARTICULAR person is a liar.” This episode is also not meant to be a defense of Catholic theology and doctrine and tradition as *correct* or what *you* should believe, but rather we're trying to show how it has been misrepresented in order for Chick to fearmonger.

Alberto Rivera alleges a large-scale global conspiracy theory in which the Roman Catholic Church seeks world domination. Rivera claims to be an ex-priest who worked for the jesuits to infiltrate protestant churches in order to bring them down from the inside. Only problem with this is that Alberto Rivera was a grifter and a fraud. Find out why on today's episode. Part 2 will come in a few weeks when we get back from summer break!

In the 1980s, the little Christian comic books known as Chick Tracts were EVERYWHERE. You'd find them in movie theaters and bus station bathrooms, on subways, and all over shopping malls. People would slip them inside VHS rentals or library books. Many Chick Tracts are black and white Christian horror stories that pull from a huge cast of characters: witches, bikers, Hindus, rock and rollers, Catholics, queer people, truckers, Masons and trick-or-treaters. And at some point in the tract, the protagonist often has to make a choice: either accept Jesus as their savior, or get tossed like cordwood into a Lake Of Fire. Chick Tracts have left a really complicated legacy. Collectors are mesmerized by their edginess and kitsch. The Smithsonian regards Chick Tracts as American religious artifacts, and keeps a bunch of them in its vaults. At the same time, many of these comics are filled with some ugly and dangerous messages, including homophobia and Islamophobia. So the same tracts that have been hoarded and preserved have ALSO been boycotted and banned, and condemned as hate speech.
Gavi and Sadie begin their SUMMER OF SATAN special episode series discussing the satanic panic! On today's episode, they discuss the life, art, and ministry of Jack Chick, creator of the infamous christian propaganda mini-comic book gospel tracts otherwise known as "Chick Tracts." Jack Chick was one of the primary promoters of the satanic panic/illuminati conspiracy theory and had a massive influence on conspiracy theories of today, such as Q Anon. Gavi and Sadie discuss his possible motivations for fomenting such libel and defamation.

For the final episode in our series we will explore his childhood, his time in WWII, the comic moral panic happening at the beginning of his career, and how it all shaped the nightmarish world he would come to create through his work.

An ex-druid grand priest for the illuminati, an undercover Jesuit agent of destruction, a woman married to the devil, and a doctor who battled demons and satanists alongside her – these are the people who brought Jack Chick the life stories he would use to create his tracts, comics, and books.

Cartoons of satanic witch cults, Illuminati world domination, demonic homosexuals, and the pressing choice of hell or salvation were the horror hallmarks of Baptist indie comic artist Jack Chick's sensational world, his stories told through small booklets that his fans were instructed to leave anywhere a stranger might stumble across them. With a billion of these (often unintentionally hilarious) melodramatic little comics sold throughout the 70s, 80s, 90s, and into the present day, Chick Publications has played no small role in the creation of the most famous moral panics, conspiracy theories, and urban legends in American history. For part one, we will totally submerge you in his strange reality using some of the most outrageous examples of his work.

Chick Tracts, what are they? You'll find out in our upcoming three-part series that covers a fundamentalist comic artist who was a hidden architect of the satanic panic, illuminati, and gay agenda hysterias. Jack Chick printed hundreds of millions of his bible tracts, small stapled together cartoon booklets full of blood sacrificing witches, evil secret societies, and sensationalized sin, based on the stories of "experts" like a druid high priest, a Catholic secret agent, and two women battling demons in a witch infested hospital. Chick Tracts are ridiculously brutal, deeply offensive, unintentionally hilarious morality plays meant to be left in random places by random Christians, in order to scare straight whatever lucky sinner happens to find them.

On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, prolific author, artist and gospel tract creator David W. Daniels is our guest as we visit with Chick Publications, the world's leading producer of gospel tracts. Jack Chick left very big shoes to fill, starting in 1962 with the first Chick Tract called ‘A Demon's Nightmare', and by 1979 sales of Chick Tracts had hit 100 million. As growth continued during the 1980's and 1990's, Jack began to pray for someone who could help him research topics for the tracts, it was then that Bro. David Daniels was welcomed into the fold. With the passing of Jack's long-time friend and illustrator, Fred Carter, Bro. Daniels found himself with the entire Chick Tract legacy on his shoulders. Today on the NTEB Sit Down, we visit with Bro. Daniels to see the amazing ways the Lord is using him on the end times battlefield!

On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, someone must have forgotten to inform pretend president Joe Biden that the Church Age doesn't experience the Days of Lot, because his administration is packed with transgenders, LGBTQIA+, BDSM practitioners, and a whole host of other junk that would make Jack Chick want to come back from Heaven and republish Doom Town all over again. To put it simply, America as a nation is now formally and officially embracing what God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for. How do you think that will work out in the coming months? On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we show you how the Days of Lot, one of the hallmarks of the time of Jacob's trouble, has already surfaced and is actively and openly operating right now. I think most Americans are really not aware of just what's going on over at the White House in Washington, DC. What am I talking about? A non-binary drag queen who poses online with people in bondage gear and dressed up as a nun has been given a job in Biden's Department of Energy. Sam Brinton, who uses the pronouns they/them, wrote on LinkedIn last month that they have accepted the job of 'Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition. God bless America, baby.

He's been called the most widely read cartoonist of all time. But also, the most popular theologian, too. Yet his legacy is truly shocking and controversial. When he died in 2016, many Evangelical Christians mourned the loss of a great Christian leader. Others held online parties to say good riddance to who they said was a homophobic, racist and unloving man.His little palm sized religious comics (known as Chick Tracts) are still used today. People find them scattered in public places, or slipped between the covers of library books...they speak of a frightening world of corruption and hellfire.Join me for this episode of 'Our Curious Past' as we explore the work and life story of this divisive artist whose conspiracy theories still influence people (and politics) today.I'm Peter Laws, and this is 'The Frightening Christian World of Jack Chick, and his 'Chick Tracts.'-Help support our show through Patreon: patreon.com/peterlaws-Find us on all podcasting platforms: https://link.chtbl.com/HHE-Check out our other podcasts: itsarclightmedia.com-Visit us online at: Itshometownhistory.com
What is our liberty as Christians when it comes to entertainment? Where is the line between the acceptable and the unacceptable? On this episode of Conversations with a Calvinist, Keith welcomes Jake Corn to discuss the concept of Fantasy Fiction and whether or not Christians can or should enjoy it. They discuss the works of G.K. Chesterton, J.R.R.Tolkien, C.S. Lewis and J.K. Rowling. They also discuss fantasy games such as Dungeons and Dragons which were universally condemned in the 80s and 90s by Jack Chick. On the show, Jake mentioned a free class on this subject given at his seminary.

In this episode we dip back into our Dungeons and Dragons discussion and bring it to a conclusion but not before doubling down on the delusional deluge of disinformation. If you think the dishonest disreputable deriders of Dungeons and Dragons disgraced themselves in the last episode then dig in for a downpour of disturbed deceptive ding bats.We'll delve into the deranged world of Fundamentalist Christian comic book creator Jack Chick. The most published comic book author in the world, whom you've never heard of. A man into all kinds of conspiracy theories. He is most obsessed with the Catholic Church claiming they keep the name of every Protestant in the world on file with the intention of carrying out another inquisition one day. He also attacks the Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Muslims and of course it goes without saying, Freemasons.We'll return to Virginia, the spiritual home of Dungeons & Dragons hysteria and hear from Winston Mathews who sought the Republican nomination for attorney general in the state of Virginia. He proudly announced he was campaigning on just on 2 issues, maintaining the death penalty and abolishing Dungeons & Dragons, claiming it contained, ‘devil worship, Satanism and pornography.'We'll investigate the links between Capital Punishment and DnD you weren't even aware of. Like Oklahoma teenager Sean Sellers who shot a convenience store clerk, Robert Paul Bower then 6 months later shot dead his mother and stepfather, Vonda and Lee Bellofatto while they slept in their bed. Throughout the lengthy trial and appeals process Sellers had claimed to have been a practising Satanist and possessed by a demon. He claimed DnD manuals helped him convert others to Satanism.What Moral Panic would be complete without Geraldo Rivera and we'll look at his 2 part series for Entertainment Tonight in 1987. Pastor George Grant makes a return with co-author Peter Leithart expressing their deepest fears about imagination and their claims Jesus is a character in the game.Homophobic radio host and author Texe Marrs who believes the world is flat, Judaism and Catholicism are Satanism, the Clintons and Newt Gingrich are Marxists and Barbie Doll is Goddess of the Sun among many other things makes an appearance.Pastor Win Worley who claims the Star of David, Karate, tattoos and piercings are all occult spirits, paraphrases Exodus in his attack on the game.But it is alleged former Satanist Bill Schnoebelen who steals the show with his claims of being a vampire. And when I say vampire I mean an actual vampire. Fangs, unable to walk around in the daytime and drinking blood. He really claims this. He also claims he has had sex with a fallen angel!We discover the people most afraid of a Table Top Fantasy Role Play Game are the very people whose grip on reality is the weakest.DnD gets wrapped up in the Satanic Panic along with other pure fantasy like Michelle Remembers and The Satan Seller by an overly superstitious market, ready and waiting to be thrilled and terrified by tales of Demons and evil cabals.And this fear didn't all end in the 80s. In the 21st century the game has been targeted by a Spiritual Warfare Network Regional Coordinator, Diane Buker, televangelist Pat Robertson and author Gary North who predicted Y2K was going to destroy western civilization would like to see the U.S. become a Handmaid's Tale styled theocracy. And also wants offenses like blasphemy and homosexuality to be punishable by death. And when I say death, Gary advocates the method of execution be a good old public stoning.
John Todd was a former high-level Druid witch, who was saved by the blood of Jesus Christ. Todd assisted the late Seventh-Day Adventist publisher Jack Chick in the production of several comic book tracts such as The Broken Cross. Many … Continue reading →
Have you ever wondered why fundamentalism is so rife with conspiracy theories? Have you ever wondered about the link between the IFB and Q anon? Have you ever wondered how Illuminati and New World Order conspiracies became ubiquitous?

Well look no further as Sadie and Gavri'el revisit the timeless work of Jack Chick. Did we say timeless? What we meant was paranoid, nonsensical, and admittedly sourced entirely from a certifiable lunatic who claimed to personally know Charles Manson.
