It’s hard to get a point across subtly within the context of a 3-6 panel story. Thankfully, I don’t always fall this short of the mark.

Still, I like how the repetition of the first and last rows worked out.

It's always been against my policy to water any outdoor plants. If God wanted them to live, he would make it rain.

The only thing that could have made this comic better, in my opinion, would have been a complete reiteration of the first and second panels in the last two, skeletal corpses and all. :)

I like this one for some reason. Maybe it's because I'm a mean-spirited atheist.

So what is it that makes you atheists such mean spirited, pompous assholes? Is it the horrible inevitability that your beliefs condemn you to oblivion, never to see or hear your loved ones ever again, to wink out of existence as if you were never there? Or is there some other bug up you ass?

If you were a beleiver talking about atheists, you wouldn't say they are going to cease existing, you would say they're going to hell. Get your trolls right.

Good job failing AGAIN (see "rocket fuel" comments) at understanding the concept of a "joke", trance. Batting a thousand, you are.

Also, being an atheist, I don't care much about oblivion. It's not like I'll be around to see it!

I find that atheists can be mean spirited. Not all are, but some, the loud ones are at least.
This is funny because, they get mean spirited because of loud christians. Not all of us are like those that you seem to hate so much, just the loud ones. I don't think its any issues relating to "winking out of existence," it has to do with their annoyance at having religion stuffed down their throats by loud antaganistic religious people. And being a chrisitan, I'm upset with these people too for making us all look bad.
And yes I agree with Tim, Trance, you need to think some more before you go posting comments.

Look, my point is that this is a funny comic.

Yes, some atheists are mean-spirited. Appearing with the same frequency as mean-spirited religious people, I'd bet. The problem isn't that atheism (or religion) makes people that way, it's either fear or ignorance. In Tim's case, though, I think he's just being facetious, rather than intentionally cruel.

This comic isn't really funny. I tend to think that religious folk are quite vain, thinking that some deity would bestow blessings directly on them. The universe does not exist to support us, we do not exist to justify the existence of the universe!

Hi Richard! I remember you from the other comments (On the page about chess).
I totally agree with you. I think everything you say in the first paragraph is spot on. The second paragraph, I believe differently than you, but that's neither here nor there.

... it was hard boarding up the house and leaving the farm. Thankfully, his brother needed a hand on his dairy farm and they were able to stay there until the drought had let up. And His brother and his wife were so glad to have them with them while she struggled through a difficult pregnancy that required nearly constant bedrest.

Now they have returned to the farm and upgraded the irrigation system (with the money they earned and saved during their sojourn at his brother's farm.) The farm is better nsulated against a drought and they love their yearly visits from his brotherand wife and growing son.
God is faithful.

Sharon, it's probably wise for you not to bring those things up. The fact is, God does not answer most prayers. Perhaps he might answer some, but certainly the majority go unanswered. So maybe that's what actually happened in this panel, but does it matter? I know paraplegics who have been praying for years to regain the use of their legs. The funny thing is, none of them have.

Oh, I love it. I guess the Lord was away on vacation and forgot to water his terrarium.

The comments are funnier than the comic. Defend the "mean-spirited atheist" and tell Sharon it's not wise to say something positive about God and prayer, while reading a comic directly commenting on God and prayer. Keep on fighting the good fight, internet warriors!

Aha, and the religious freaks chime in xD

I like this one, I know a lot of instances where this actually happened to people I know.
Some faith!

Also, I like how you draw dead dried up plants :o
