    That would make for a good thread. I know the power of the catholic church's roots go a lot deeper than people realize.

    I love Chick's Tracts. If I weren't saved these would do the trick. :thumbs:

    What kind of a "trick" is it that they do?

    I think that is innocent slang for "They would accomplish the task of presenting the gospel."

    Why would someone who says the KJV is the only version be accused of idol worship? This makes no sense to me....

    The "Trick" is that that they are comics and therefore easily attract your attention; especially children

    As Ronald Reagan once said "You cant beat success"

    PS one definition of trick is "to set up for display"

    I have used the doctrinally correct Chick Tracts since
    before you were born. But lately I've found out they
    are not the same as when I used them before.
    You and I are half the people who said that "I like them and use
    them personally".

    When I used them they weren't KJVO.
    When I used them they weren't anti-alien.

    I haven't seen the new ones yet. I remember the ones from around the "This is your life" tract.

    This was your life?

    Post 13 is about the old and new:

    WHY NO REVIVAL?

    They are different.

    Here is a link to This is Your Life
    with an African lead character
    (and a rather African looking angel, from 1978):

    http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0409/0409_01.asp

    Here is a link to This is Your Life
    with an White guy lead character
    (and a rather white guy looking angel, from 2002):

    http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0001/0001_01.asp

    I have a 1972 White guy This is Your Life

    The plan of salvation page is similar,
    however the 1972 has a check box where you
    can say YES or NO to "Did you accept Jesus Christ
    as your own personal Savior?"
    [I have one in some other Chick that my daughter
    wrote her name in. She was born in 1969]
    The 2002 is probably an improvement placing
    Romans 10:9 a the beginning of the page.

    No other differences. I can pass the 2002
    version of This is Your Life around.

    I'm not anti-alien, I'm anti-illegal alien.

    I don't see Catholics as Christians. They follow Catholicism and the Pope, not Christianity. When the Pope died they said the light of the church died. They are wrong Jesus/God is the light of the church.

    Also, the Pope can't change scripture, that's a sin.
