edit: fixed the images.

I don't know why they don't want hotlinked images, considering I'm just getting the message out (evil laugh)

You've got to be fucking shitting me. That is unreal.

I'm speechless...

I really hope this is some parody/satire site, i'm just to tired to look at the site itself. Though, i wouldn't be suprised if it isnt.

The sad reality is that it's not.

Chick Tracts have been around as long as I can remember, inflamming the masses (pun intended).

Nisses 04-27-2004 02:45 AM

WHAT.ON.EARTH?

Next thing they'll ban playing cards because it inevitably leads to gambling away your life-savings in illegal cock-fights...

My first thought was a louzy attempt at satire too. Then I looked up the site it came from...

I am honestly disgusted when I read what this so-called christian has to say about D&D.

Honestly, if the author believes these things are real and you will cast spells to influence others... then who here is the mentally twisted individual? The player who enjoys a little social passtime? Or the author who's mind cannot seem to grasp even the meaning of the word "fantasy" ?

Aletheia 04-27-2004 02:49 AM

Yeah I have seen that before. Everytime I play D&D I think of that and laugh.

Nisses 04-27-2004 03:06 AM

I tore this off of the site http://www.chick.com/articles/dnd.asp
Where the comic came from

Quote:

On top of that, the second issue is that the materials themselves, in many cases, contain authentic magical rituals. I can tell you this from my own experience. I was a witch high priest (Alexandrian tradition) during the period 1973-84. During some of that period (1976-80) I was also involved in hardcore Satanism. We studied and practiced and trained more than 175 people in the Craft. Our "covendom" was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; just a short drive away from the world headquarters of TSR, the company which makes Dungeons and Dragons in Lake Geneva, WI. In the late 1970's, a couple of the game writers actually came to my wife and I as prominent "sorcerers" in the community. They wanted to make certain the rituals were authentic. For the most part, they are.
Nice way to go about doing this. He used to be a hardcore satanist. A bit earlier he was an Alexandrian Witch High Priest. And now he's a fundamental christian? Nice to know he's at least consistent in his actions. But wait, that's supposed to validate him probably. He knows his stuff because he has played the game a few times. If it was with his fellow Hardcore Satanistic Witch High Priests, I'll bet it may have been a bit weird.

And that whole idiotic slandering TSR:
the authentic rituals around the table go something like:
"I cast Lightning."
"Ok, roll dice to check for damage."

And here I thought a ritual would involve a little more...

Argl, why am I getting worked up over this moronic site? :)

Tophat665 04-27-2004 03:12 AM

Sounds like Chick missed his save against Feeblemind. Such is life.

tecoyah 04-27-2004 04:10 AM

Chikapu is Satan Incarnate, and has captured the minds of your children. Bow down before the lord of chicken/kitten things, that you may feel the power of badly done anime.

Harshaw 04-27-2004 06:02 AM

Man I can't believe this, what a load of crap.... Dungeon Masters are never that hot.

rockogre 04-27-2004 06:14 AM

This is one of the few things I have seen on the TFP that I can, in all honesty, say I find offensive.

But then I find all crap like this offensive.

I can only hope that there are more of us than them.

If you think that one was bad, try going to thier site and looking at some of the other crap that they have out there.

This one is my personal "favorite". I like how they've drawn the "creationist" teacher to resemble an evil witch, or something. Nice little piece of propaganda work. :mad:

guthmund 04-27-2004 07:10 AM

We used to find them along the urinals at work all the time. Nothing brightens up my day like a good Chick tract.

Now if you'll forgive me, I've got some people to curse and demons to call....if I can just find my dice.....

{Edit: I just read the link above....

"No, Timmy most people will end up in Hell."

Midnight_Son 04-27-2004 07:48 AM

you should see some of the things I've read about the Harry Potter books and movies.....it's really scary.....now can we burn the churches??

moonstrucksoul 04-27-2004 08:51 AM

ahhhh laugh out loud funny, that comic is from 1984, literally, the first illustrated panel shows a copyright date from 1984. If you aren't old enough to remember, the christian war against D&D was a big thing in the early/mid eighties.

analog 04-27-2004 08:53 AM

HOLY SHIT.

Who the hell actually believes or spreads this bullshit??

I mean... DAMN.

EDIT: They call Catholicism NOT a christian church!

Yeah, they're pretty old school hard core fundamentalist.


(BTW, since I'm in one of those churches, please don't burn them Midnight_Son :D )

RoboBlaster 04-27-2004 01:05 PM

D&D doesn't make me worship Satan, it only let's me form a nice working relationship with him.

flamingdog 04-27-2004 01:26 PM

This is the best one. Compares Chick Tracts to Chinese Communist propaganda, which was similarly presented in the form of comic books. He calls his own message propaganda without hesitation, irony or self-awareness, as if it's supposed to convince the average American to buy [into] his shit.

Oh yes, it's all for sale. Chick is making a fat wad out of exploiting Christians' unwillingness to get n people's hostile faces about their faith. You buy a gross of Chick tracts and leave them places for people to find. Your contract with Jesus is fulfilled, you get to go to heaven and Chick gets paid, his conscience clear.

nanofever 04-27-2004 01:33 PM

I love Jack Chick, such a funny man. As for the Dark Dungeon tract, I have been level 12 for some time and I haven't been taught any spells. I guess I'm going to have to settle for "I, I attack the darkness" and "I want to cast Magic Missle."

My favorite chick quotes are "I don't want to be elfstar anymore. I want to be Debbie" and from the Gomez tract "Tonight we serve you the taco supreme".

http://www.chick.com/tractimages57519/0013/0013_10.gif

The worst tract ever ,in my opinion, is "Lisa":

"LISA" Review! (Art by Carter ©1984.) This has GOT to be the most uncomfortable Chick tract ever written. Not because it's insensitive, but because the topic is SUPER sensitive: Child Molestation-- by the parent! The story follows a jobless, hen pecked husband as he stays at home and watches pornography. His beer bellied next door neighbor comes over to watch with him, then drops a bomb shell: "I know what's going on with (you and your daughter) Lisa... That's pretty juicy gossip. I'll keep quiet, old buddy, if we can share and share alike!" WHOA! The story suddenly kicks into hyper-gear. The very next panel, hen-pecked Henry is catching another bomb shell, this time from his doctor who just ran tests on Lisa. She has Herpes! And she told the doctor how her daddy and his neighbor are to blame! He screams that she is a liar, but the wise old doctor doesn't buy it. Just when you expect the police to arrive and cart Henry off, the doctor launches into a sermon about Jesus and forgiveness. Henry instantly converts (hey, it beats the big house!) and mums the word on daddy's dirty deeds. Henry races home and tells his wife he's saved. She admits she knew about the molestation all along, because her *!%* uncle did the same thing to her (so it's a family tradition). They pray together and tears flood from every eye ball. They call Lisa and we see how young she really is for the first time. It's shocking. She still carries a teddy bear and looks maybe five years old. We're talking MAJOR molestation and rape here, but all seems forgiven. Never mind the incurable child Herpes, or the unrepentant next door neighbor. The important thing is, another saved soul. I must be vindictive, because I wanted to see someone dive into the Lake, or at least get raped in prison. Giving the perp a good dose of AIDS would have been poetic justice. Instead, nobody is punished except the victim. (I guess that's more realistic than most of us like to admit.) This tract is currently out of print, but it's a favorite. Grade: A for Adult Content

Lebell. The pics got rexed. Do you have a link?

FOUND IT!

nanofever 04-27-2004 01:42 PM

Chick's site changes the numbers after the pictures its seems, this should work though...

(edit: I hope you don't mind that I pasted your links into the top post. Thanks for getting those.

assilem 04-27-2004 01:50 PM

This happened to me just last week. I should have visited chick.com sooner. Thanks for the heads ups Lebell. ;)

Ahhh...brings back flashbacks of 1982-83. I was about 11 or 12 when the local library decided to let people play D&D there on Saturday mornings. They set aside several rooms and the first Saturday was a hit. Next Saturday the local press was there taking pictures, interviewing players, etc. The article's headline was "Demons invade library!" Needless to say, that was the last day we were allowed to play at the library.

panbert 04-27-2004 06:36 PM

Just my two cents worth...

Can't say if this is necessarily the view of the mainstream Christian church, so just want to warn you guys not to start burning down churches just yet.

nanofever 04-27-2004 07:40 PM

Just a thought I had, if Debbie was a real friend she would take a player's guide, three 6-sided dice and a photocopied character sheet over to Marcie's house to roll up a new ambassador to satan's embassy.

Vyk 04-27-2004 08:08 PM

Wow. Frightening what belief can be perverted into.

yotta 04-27-2004 08:19 PM

When I've played D&D there have never actualy been any rituals. I don't know what this guy is smoking

hu-man 04-28-2004 01:39 AM

I can't believe this is supposed to be for real. I mean, come on!

shalafi 04-28-2004 06:52 AM

Aahhh the 80s DnD will make you burn in hell. Listen to Judas Priest and youll kill yourself. Who shot JR? wow....flashbacks are fun.

DelayedReaction 04-28-2004 08:21 AM

Our club (Terrapin Gaming Club at the University of Maryland) plans on distributing these tracts as flyers for open gaming night. Great publicity.

Little Susy is scarier than much else I can think of.

It's interesting that with such a diverse bunch as we are at TFP, so far not one person has stood up for this crap. I find the idea that adults and children are taken in by this message and, Chick turns a profit, to be sickening.
