Funny because the illustration looks like a pile of shit left by my car when she is seriously pissed off.
Is that Christian?

So, do you have to cut people open to find out if they’re true Christians? I also want the backstory of this kid who didn’t go to school, but stayed home to help mother by fetching potatoes.

Just piercing their side to check has been acceptable for both Christians and potatoes for a couple millenia now.

I’ve always hated when my carbs proselytize at me.

Well, that and throwing them in the river to see if they float (rotten!) or sink (pure!).

The sequel, “The Hard-Boiled Egg that was a Jew,” took a particularly dark turn.

Ugh. I’ve always been creeped out the use of e.g. “mother,” “father,” “baby” etc. as non-specific not-quite-proper nouns. Makes my flesh crawl.

If you want to see how bad it is in the heart of a man who is not a Christian

I honestly think who ever wrote that shiat had such a small world view that everyone in it was a professed “christian” and that some people who profess to be “christian” aren’t actually that. Maybe I’m myopic but I wouldn’t have ever thought the intention was to say any pagan/muslim/jew/atheist has a black heart but then again I bet if pushed to answer the authors would say yeah and I still just see the world through the lens of the liberal catholic ex-nuns in gradeschool who said love your neighbor (no exceptions period) as you love yourself and taught evolution and had us practice meditation in religion class.
