I’m going to be so sad when every character has had a chance to stand in front of barbed wire Jesus and I have no reason to use this premise again. This is seriously one of my favorite recurring things. Putting characters in front of something like a crucifix allows you to illustrate things about them that you wouldn’t normally get to without a lot of setup. The characters I write tend not to be very reverent of much of anything, but they also aren’t generally maliciously disrespectful. They are playful in their attitude towards this religious icon. That’s pretty common for your typical secular Christian in the Midwest. They tend to be pretty chill about their beliefs until someone else stops being chill. The more zealous Christians range in severity from chill to openly hostile, which is true of any group of believers really.
Attitudes about religion have shifted a lot from when I was a kid and this comic still takes place at a time when things weren’t quite as intense at they are becoming now. Of course as time has gone on a lot of things I thought were generally agreed upon have become issues in conflict. I guess that’s just the nature of things with a short lived species like humans. every 20 years or so we cycle in and out a new group of people as the march to the grave continues. Old thought finds its way to the dirt and the clean slate of kids who know everything come in to have their say. The merry go round of life keeps spinning between each new set of riders.
In any case I’m going to have to start manufacturing reasons for the cast to stand before Christ and commentate pretty soon. I dunno how I’m gonna do it, but I really don’t want to give this up. XD
I should probably quit while I’m ahead on this subject since it’s very hard to gauge how touchy people are these days. As far as religion goes I feel like as long as you don’t infringe on the rights of others you should be able to worship whatever you want however you want. Not infringing on the rights of others is pretty much my polestar for everything though.
I hope you have a nice weekend. I’m not sure what shape mine will take, but I intend to place more DVDs into my DVD holder and move the cases to whatever storage I can find that’s out of my way. I feel like I may have underestimated how many DVDs I have though. I thought it might be a little over 400, but I forgot that a lot of my sets have multiple discs. It’s not like I can’t buy another holder though. Anyway, I hope to see you on Monday. Until then, take a journey with excellence.
