Quote:Cartoonist Jack Chick has passed away at the age of 92, according to a Facebook post made by Chick Publications.
Chick was known for his small comic strip booklets, called "Chick tracts," that warned of social dangers through the lens of Chick's fundamentalist Christian beliefs.
Chick tracts warned of the dangers of everything from rock music, to Freemasonry, to Catholicism, Judaism, and Islam. One of Chick's most famous works, "Dark Dungeons," which espoused Chick's belief that roleplaying games such as Dungeons & Dragons were tools of Satanism, was adapted into an independent short film in 2014.
Chick Publications estimates that it has printed over 800 million copies of its well known tracts.

D&D ... oh my! I can see it now ... Satanic Demon Geeks taking over the world!
What a dreadful, petty, intolerant man!
Man is powerless against the occult and against religion other than fundamentalist Protestantism unless he accepts the narrow bigotry of Jack Chick. If you do not live in the abject fear of the LORD as such as Jack Chick understands it, which is the cloying fear appropriate for living under a tyrant like Josef Stalin, then one is doomed to the worst Gulag ever known -- Hell.
It's all the argument to fear, one of the most obnoxious fallacies to have ever existed.
The god who dangles us over a vat of sulfuric acid deserves rebellion -- not faith. Such a god is no better than a crime lord.
May the LORD have mercy upon this sick soul.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
