Another thread mentioned finding a lot of religious tracks, and that reminded me that Jack Chick recently passed away at the age of 92.

Just a precautionary Mod Note -- Keep the discussion to Chick himself, not the content of the tracts."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons. Nobuo Uematsu used Crayola Crayons to paint the Sistine Chapel." - Jeremy Jahns (re: "Dancing Mad")
"The difference between an amateur and a master is that the master has failed way more times." - JoCat
"Thinking is difficult, therefore let the herd pronounce judgment!" ~ Carl Jung
"There's burning bridges, and then there's the lake just to fill it with gasoline." - Wiccy, reddit
"Retail is a cruel master, and could very well be the most educational time of many people's lives, in its own twisted way." - me
"Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down...tell you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens...makes her a home." - Capt. Malcolm Reynolds, "Serenity" (2005)

Fair enough -- but his work really falls under both "controversial" AND "religion" -- and thus, they belong on Fratching. Feel free to start up a discussion thread on there and drop a link in this thread, if you like."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons.

The OP title made me think of this. (Not a commentary on Mr. Chick or his tracts, just a case of my brain working in strange ways.)
