The Meaning of Christmas: a controversial interpretive cartoon
This one is purposefully open to interpretation. We believe it will say different things to different people.

Hope you enjoy it.

2. Features one of my favorite Bible passages
And, oddly enough in this passage, salvation isn't dependent on bringing three friends to Sunday school, witnessing on street corners, confessing Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, or following the Four Spiritual Laws.

3. It's one of my favorite passages, the one that kicks my ass.
It's a reminder of what one is really supposed to do daily if one really does want to follow that guy they named a religion after.

The wingers similarly ignore his admonition not to pray in public.

This cartoon is about HYPOCRISY and the entire IN YOUR FACE CHRISTMAS blitz.

4. Good stuff! I like your work
I've bookmarked your site to explore more when I have the time.

(In return, a pretty new British cartoon I discovered - "Jesus and Mo" - http://jesusandmo.net/ )

8. What would Jesus do? I think I know.
That's why I put in the cartoon.

9. My last kick of the night.
I like to maintain a relationship of no more than 4-1 my posts to others.

It's a law we can live with.

If I think I'll need more, I voluntarily go to FISA court to get their OK.
