Cartoon Saturday


And you thought August was crazy ...

Texas Republicans enacted the nation's most restrictive (and, arguably, unconstitutional) abortion restrictions, which the conservative-dominated Supreme Court has let stand; having devastated Louisiana, hurricane Ida went on to wreak havoc on the US northeast; a supporter of the "Islamic State" in New Zealand, who had been under police surveillance, stabbed at least six persons in an Auckland supermarket; and in the worst luck of the week, a family with a month-old baby evacuated their home in Rahway, New Jersey, before it was flooded by hurricane Ida, only to have the house destroyed by a huge explosion hours later.

This week, in honor of religious crazies taking over in Afghanistan and Texas, I thought some cartoons about religion would be just the thing. Step back in case I get struck by lightning.

I really do think this is how it's going to end up ...  


Yes, and let's forget the January insurrection and move on, too ...


I think Satan should just keep those guys unless he's running out of storage space ...


Yes, that's how it will probably end ...


If that's an entrance requirement, there will be plenty of space ...


This is a good representation of the radical Christian right ... if you don't know what the Malleus Maleficarum is, see here ...


How GOP members of Congress view religious belief ... and legal responsibilities ...


Yep ... "intelligent design" is no match for natural stupidity ...


That would do it ...


Oh, the horror!! ...


And there you have it ... the first Cartoon Saturday for September, 2021. Thou shalt laugh.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts coming tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday returns ... see you then.

I did not know what Malleus Maleficarum was. So the witch hunters had a 'how to' book! Why didn't that surprise me?
