| God is the same, but in the new testament his son was sent to earth. Through Jesus, God became one of us. Jesus intervenes between us and God on our behalf. He is the "rose colored glasses" that helps God to forgive us and accept us. When Jesus allowed himself to be killed on the cross he took the brunt of our sin. We are forgiven because Jesus suffered for us. Many people feel that we shouldn't read the old testament anymore since it contains old information and rules to help people reach salvation before Christ, but it remains important because Jesus' coming is predicted throughout the old testament. You know, if you're really curious maybe you should try reading it. It's all explained there ^_~ |

| I think you're mostly right, but just polarizing things a bit. God forgives regardless of the book. Things were just a little less kind in the old testament, eye for an eye and all that. While the new testament does indeed have the redeeming characteristic of being very positive and sets a very forgiving tone, it isn't preciesly an "everyone is saved" but "everyone can be saved" sort of message.
My 2 cents. -s |

| simply put, god or nor, the bible was written by people: prophets and scribes, many of which were most possibly lying through their teeth. trusting the words written by man over god himself seems foolish... |

| I think it might be because he was learning how to deal with us. Like with parents, you most always screw up with the first kid and when the next one comes you do better. |

| Atheism rules - you don't have to come up with silly excuses for the behavior of a capricious daity.
Seriously - the old testament was written about 600 years before the new one (well - parts of it, anyway - some parts are older and some a bit newer). I think that times have changed and with them the "message of god". You should look at the old testament - specifically the books of the Torah - the first 5 books - many of the rules in them contradict each other without shame. The fact is that it was written in at least 3 different periods, when different standards applied. Honestly - I prefered it when the laws weren't written down, but were passed by word of mouth - that way people could decide what is actually the right thing and not be bogged down by obsolete rules. |

| Well, to oversimplify, the Old Testament is (mostly) Jewish text, and the New Testament is Christian. Early Christians tacked the Old Testament onto the New Testament to make their new religion look old and venerable, so that the Romans would respect it. At least, that's what I remember from my New Testament class.
But the Christian explanation of the difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament is usually kinda like this: in the beginning, humanity was like a little child, so God punished it a lot as it grew up. Now humanity is growing older, and God is more like the forgiving parent of an adult. Or something. I like the first explanation better, but I've heard 'em both. btw, I really like the comic so far ^_^ The plot is very intriguing. Can't wait to read more! |

| Hello Mr. Lai. To cure your, and everyone else's stupidity, Jehovah was trying to kill all the people filled with sin at first before the problem got much worse, but since they didn't listen and could not follow their simple 10 commandments, did not love nor try to understand Jehovah, he as he said he would, sent his son to die, giving everyone not just jews an easy way to heaven, then cut off communication seeing humanity as being overrun with sin, much like a city overrun with zombies. However, I have a different approach to you calling Jehovah an asshole. You should be stopped, and I think your arrogance is the way to do it. I am thinking of a number between one to one hundred, I doubt you always floating in the shallow end of the pool will be able to understand it. I have been obvious enough maybe too obvious like god's right hand, but you being smarter then god should be able to figure out what I am saying right? So come up with my name by tomorrow this time and I won't stop your pathertic comic. If you don't I will. Simple as that. You Jason Lai are already a liar, and a womanizer, but then to call Jehovah an asshole makes you far worse. I will show everyone of these people how you stole from eva and a dream to make this comic, I know who god in your comic really is and I could say her lines better and smarter then you ever could. I will make you eat every will expose every flaw. and why? because I don't care people don't want to listen to Jehovah, I don't care that people are evil but what I do care about is that a low grade demon used liar such as your self insults the god who made us all, so show us all how smart you are jason. here's my old testiment prophecy you will fail. |
| by Jason @ 17 March 2008 02:14 pm |
| Hello lesnick. Terribly sorry I offended you somehow; I admit I probably should not have used the term "asshole" in that context, and thus I apologize.
On a similiar subject, it has become apparent to me over the last few months that I have a knack for upsetting people online. Ha...well, fortunately, I do seem to entertain a much larger number of people than I piss off ^_^ (or so I'd like to think lol) |
| by Jason @ 17 March 2008 02:25 pm |
| Actually, I take that last comment back. I just checked the records, and apparently lesnick is actually Project LOL/Brad/Jasan. Ha...I suppose I'm really only pissing off one person than XD.
I'm actually flattered this person is taking the time to not only read my comic, but read my news posts, AND take the time to write up long and intricate posts to insult me. Definitely one of the more hard-working haters |
| by KJDiamond @ 17 March 2008 02:39 pm |
| God is the same regardless of the time period. But I think I see where you're coming from, I had the same problem when I first became a Christian. It's kind of confusing, but the way I've always thought of it is that God is the same God- but things changed in the New Testament, so we get a fuller picture of just WHO God is, through Jesus.
Before, God couldn't (and still can't) be around anything 'unclean'; it is completely against his nature. (Which is probably a good thing, considering He IS God... I don't think I'd want a less-than-pure/just guy ruling everything!) But He still wanted that relationship with His creations, so that's why there's all the rules about sacrificing/do this teeny insignifigant action a certain way deal; because there was no one to 'pay the price' of sin, it was necsary to do things that way. At least until Jesus came and died; because He took on the punishment for our sin. (Though it makes you wonder why He just didn't send Jesus from the get-go... a question I'll have to ask one day. ;P) I hope that all made sense? I'm bad at explaining things sometimes. -KJD [PS: God may seem slightely more 'angry' in the Old Testament, but there are plenty of examples of His love/mercy for us as well. There are also a few examples of Jesus getting 'angry' in the New Testament. That doesn't change who He is though. I think the 'angry' tone just comes across more in the Old Testament than the New... probably more so due to the culture/people differences than an actual difference in God.] :) |
| by Lesnick @ 17 March 2008 04:32 pm |
| Apparently you never get tired of lying about records, you couldn't know who did what as we used the same system you use to commit fraud. Isn't that right Mr Lai? You would have came up with an array of numbers not unlike the ones which you employ, of course if you looked for the inconsistencies you'd have your answer. And certainly I am not upset Mr Lai I was waiting for this. You are truly dumber then I expected, we had a running bet as to when you'd cross the line, and I was not disappointed. Further you completely disregarded what I said, clues are for tv where as in real life idiots like yourself make up the world. There's no jason-csi only a retarded overconfident dumbass that doesn't realize calling god an asshole and writing self important stories would land him in with worse then his 10 year old mind could realize. Rules are wasted on someone like you, but I'll wait for tomorrow simply for form sake, not that it matters. One final thing, we are not haters but we are janitors, after you there will be more much like weeds, but if it makes you feel better you were at least the dumbest I have ever seen. Not only did you not heed our warnings take our clues, or run, you sat there with your bots voting for yourself while calling Jehovah an asshole. |
| by Jason @ 17 March 2008 05:05 pm |
| Thank you very much for the comment KJDiamond. On a Project ROL topic...it appears this week is a bit more busy than the last so the next update may be a bit later than usual. However, I should get it up by Sunday at latest. |
| by Wicked @ 17 March 2008 06:30 pm |
| I love people.
Also Jason the story is really coming along great, I really enjoy it. Very VERY entertaining; and I've probably said that before - if so I apologize for not having something new to say. Another thing I have come to love is how your artwork improves as you move along, and if we were to go back now and look at the beginning there is such an obvious difference - the upgrade to a tablet did wonders for your style as well as your colouring. So now not only do we have an excellent story, we have something that is appealing to the eyes (although it always was) and keeps growing in appearance. |
| by Alien Cicada @ 17 March 2008 08:45 pm |
| I support atheism, as well as faith (if it's handled with intelligence), but not religion. If you don't know the difference, you have religion.
Your art and sense of timing are getting better. |
| by Jason @ 17 March 2008 08:59 pm |
| @Wicked: I love people too XD @Alien Cicada: Timing? I would love to hear what you meant by my "sense of timing [is] getting better." @Unknown: Sorry, but I accidently deleted someone's comment. I'm not really sure whose it was...but my mouse slipped and I deleted something on this page that I wasn't supposed to. I would just like to apologize ahead of time for whoever's comment was just deleted. |
| by lesnick @ 17 March 2008 10:46 pm |
| You don't seem surprised we knew your method. I assure you Mr. Lai I will tell everyone where do you suggest we start? The forums on buzz or top maybe on online comics? Perhaps these good people would like to see where you steal you ideas from? We found some interesting frames they would probably like to see. Why limit it to one forum? Let's try them all. I'm sure everyone at your school, friends and family will be proud to know what a complete fraud you are. :) |
| by Jason @ 18 March 2008 00:09 am |
| You know, I intended to just ignore you, lesnick, but you're bringing up such a terribly scary thought! Why, I don't know what I'd do if you were to go around to as many different forums as you can and showed them just how dreadful Project ROL is! I'd be appalled! Utterly ashamed!
In fact, if you can get enough people to go look at the awful job I'm doing here, I might just quit altogether, because the last thing I'd want is exposure to big name sites like TWC, BuzzComix, or Onlinecomics! No way! |

GO JASON! |
| by projectrol @ 18 March 2008 09:11 am |
| are you really this stupid? is your imagination so limited you cannot see what is about to happen? this isn't a bad mouthing, the noobpwn crowd is not here. this is not an act being done by your peers. you are still green that is why you are being so arrogant, but Mr. Lai let's begin your education because the fact that you continue to lie with that shit eating grin on your face upsets me. let us start by taking away the one thing you hold in high regard. then we will move on to the other things. Mr. Lai did we sound like we intended to spray paint project rol sux under a bridge? did you believe that we would advertise you like the plague because you are so smart and untouchable. You, Mr. Lai are a liar everytime we say it you get that look on your face. Just for a second that shit eating grin comes off, and it should come off for good. how many teachers at your school knew you were going to draw porn, what would that do to the people who know you one wonders or your credibility? what will happen when people get to know what you do to women a bit better? what will happen when you're found to be using a bot? Mr. Lai you have to understand, this is not a one day deal. |
| by bbr @ 18 March 2008 10:02 am |
| The whole religious bible thing has always had a touch of alien unearthlyness to it.
Advanced technology, holographics, cold fire, cloning, antigrav, etc. It's odd how you interpet the bible in different ways. |
| by projectrol @ 18 March 2008 11:03 am |
| we were surprised in that class we take with you when you said how you were smarter then all the whities running topcomics and buzzcomix that's why you cheats on their websites. |
| by projectrol @ 18 March 2008 11:06 am |
| if you are willing to play ball with us you could delete all of our comments up until now, that would be a show of good faith you understand what we are saying. there are a lot of weird sites showing up saying how you hate god and think you are superior to whites it's weird how the things you said in real life are coming out jason :) |
| by projectrol @ 18 March 2008 11:13 am |
| some forums may not appreciate your bizarre racist views or how you enjoy calling god an asshole, show us now you finally understand what we're saying here. Let's see if you can. |
| by pretty_blossom @ 18 March 2008 11:44 am |
| wow - I've never read such foul language outside Preacher. People who believe in a god and having a soul really make me laugh, except when they start to hurt others because they don't believe in the right sort of god or soul - then I just wonder where the human race is going to.
I agree with Alien Cicada - having faith is somehow less dangerous and more productive than having religion. Too bad god is such a powerful meme - it will take a whole lot of time to get rid of it, if at all possible. @Jason - just block that ip address - that man is insulting all decent people with his very existance... |
| by Quill @ 18 March 2008 02:05 pm |
| I find it kinda funny. This webcomic has an extremely religious theme, so I expect the fact that there might be some 'bad mouthing'. I just think the term Jason used was a bit extreme, maybe 'less kind' or something could've been better, but mr Lai already apologised for that. Also, whatever your name is, to my knowlage, he doesn't care. Bad mouth him? Who cares. We certainly won't leave. |
| by warped religion @ 18 March 2008 10:02 pm |
| hahaha, funny jehovah witnesses, you all think your always correct and that only your religion is right, its so hilarious seeing how much of ignorant dumbasses you are. bye the way people, god is an asshole, but only when we deserve it, i have no shame in calling him an asshole, hell everyone is an asshole a lil bit, and god created us in his image. god is also funny, kind, sad, and all the other emotions we have, because he is like us, but with more power, god does not want us to waste time worshiping him with false books written by men who only wanted to help themselves, god wants us to move on with our lives, live and let live. god is the same person no matter what faith you have, the person who created this world for all things to live in
this is my view, yes i know im an elitest bastard but i get tired of these religious dumbfucks who ignore common sense because they cant deal with life on their own GOD HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES MORONS! |
| by projectrol @ 19 March 2008 04:48 am |
| Times up. Well looks like you can't listen. One would guess you win Mr. Lai. Speaking of which we aren't Jehovah's witnesses. Jehovah is god's name,just because someone uses it doesn't make them that religion. You know what warped religion? We don't care. Mr. Lai is a liar and a racist who believes he can't be caught. You are just another idiot, the only reason why Mr. Lai is a special idiot is because his actions effect more then himself. Also upon further, cursing doesn't make a point, and if there is a point to be made from this, is that people who have a foul mouth lack the ability to reason enough to make arguments. If you are going to call the bible fake, man, good luck to you. Too bad everyone can't be a foul mouthed pacifist where god ruins their lives because he "wants us to move on with our lives" I'm sure if someone like Jason cheated on your website you would want justice but hey "live and let live" right? You're not an elitist bastard, you first have to be elite you second have to spell elitist correctly. Further, if god helps those who help themselves then aren't we helping ourselves right now? Yet you find this to be a bad thing correct? Regardless we're done speaking to Mr. Lai. He couldn't do one thing. So later forever. Bye. |
| by pretty_blossom @ 19 March 2008 11:07 am |
| hmmm... I just got the weirdest idea that this block is working with or is the writer of this Eva comic he keeps blabbing on. Probably not, though - most comic writers I know have a better sense of humor, and anyway those works are copyrighted so any sensible writer would just sue if they think they're being ripped off.
@warped religion - general musing about the idea that god is like humans - I get those people who think that they were "created in god's image" - they think that it makes them special somehow, instead of being cheap copies of something superior - kinda like those cheap knockoffs that you buy at half the price and break at half the time. They should know that every person on earth is one of a kind - there's no other with the same genes and the same background - not even identical twins. If that doesn't make everyone special, nothing would. |
| by Justin @ 19 March 2008 06:48 pm |
| This is getting out of hand. I think we need some general rules of intellectual engagement that even a child would understand:
1 you don't call the opposite side stupid, you tell them WHY you think they're wrong 2 actually try to look from the other person's point of view, there is ALWAYS the chance that you could be wrong 3 could we try NOT BEING DICKS? I was an atheist and now I think of myself as something of a deist, but we can discuss such matters peacefully and if you cannot, you have failed your faith/religon/objective-scientific-inqui ry. Come on, guys. |
| by Loki Fenrisulf IV @ 20 March 2008 00:05 am |
| Jasan, Projectlol, Lesnick or however you may call yourself:
I personally think you bases yourself in stupid points and takes back what you say yourself without even admiting it. You called once the art crappy and no one would read the comic because of it. Everyone here likes the art, and are still here.r When he said he didn't put much effort in the art but posted it because of the story value of the page, you said he shouldn't make a comic without putting effort in the art. Keep in mind you said yourself the art was crap. You say he is copying many people's stories. He said himself the source he is copying from, and this is one of the most copied sources EVER. The stories that may look alike may do so by an overall view, but this is unique, like many things, when looked with depth. Angels attacking humanity is not only a common theme in comics, but also in many religions's end-of-the-worlds.r He said he said himself that he is a racist and cheater, and smarter than god. I read ALL his comments and would like you to point me out when. Until then, I'm convinced you are only paranoic. This kind of language (that you designed as "fowl mouth") is scientifically proven to actually be one of the most precise ones to show our opinions about something. Also, this site is pg13, so there is no-one too young to read it. That said, there is no problem using this kind of language here to make a point. If you agree with his point, this is something completelly different. You say he is warping the meaning of God and his messages. This is his point of view, and he never said it is the actual thing. In fact, he keeps saying it isn't actually based on the bible, just on the overall story. You said you would tell the world about those things, then said you would never give him this attention he wanted so much. What? (continues) |
| by Loki Fenrisulf IV @ 20 March 2008 00:07 am |
| (continued)
The "pornography" as you say, or as he said "erotic comic" (meaning it is erotic art, something pretty acceptable) would be inserted into an area where it would be advised it would be adult material, thus giving warning and the view of the content would be responsability of the viewer. Those points beign said, I see no problem with this. I think I covered everything you said I can remember right now. If not, please remember me. English is not my native language, so I may not be understood fully, but I try to be as much as I can. I would apreciate if your response was in a well-formatted and punctuated grammar, because your previous comments where incredibly hard to understand for lack of this, and you seem to be an english-speaker, so unless I am wrong you don't even have the same excuses I do. |
| by bbr @ 20 March 2008 03:47 am |
| It's quite sad when people fight over religious views on a comic meant for entertainment.
/shoo Go foul mouth elsewhere kids, and just enjoy the comic. |
| by daltonlaffs @ 20 March 2008 05:28 pm |
| ...Reading through these comments really speaks to ya if you interpret it correctly.
Quote from song: "And they'll know we are Christians by our love". Yeah, right. Every single Christian comment I see here (that makes it obvious it's a Christian, anyway) is flaming Jason and/or the generally/ethically/religiously harmless comic. I don't care what your excuse is, 1000+ characters of getting-nowhere insults and false arguments is a waste of my interwebz. While I agree that the whole calling God an asshole thing is a bit intense, it's no reason to start acting like 4th-graders. Especially Christian 4th-graders. Read more than one book of the bible before an argument, kplzthx. I'm not taking sides, and flaming me is pointless because I'm probably not going to check back. I think this comic is for entertainment, as bravely stated above by bbr, and should not become a n00b war over the fact that he insulted the God you pretend to be like. He's atheist. Maybe the reason he thinks God is an asshole is because 99% of Christians who go around saying they're like Him ARE assholes. *cough lesnick cough* In short: He's a good artist, he's smart, he's an atheist, and lesnick needs to get LAID. |

| by WARPED RELIGION @ 20 March 2008 09:35 pm |
| a. ill admit my mistake with the jehovah witness thing, even tho technically god doesnt have a name
b. cursing does not mean im less intelligent, in fact chances are im smarter than you, im just to lazy to really care about using proper language ^-^ i also agree with what daltonlaffs says, i would argue more but i am tired from actually having a life and not spending half an hour typing up a comment on here |
| by Juro @ 20 March 2008 09:49 pm |
| That was by far the most interesting argument I've heard on the web in quite some time. I mean the language, the religion, the everything. The only problem was that these people supposedly threatened Mr. Lai w/ revealing things that they were incapable of doing making them nothing but words. It infuriates me that people like them believe their points to be "final" when they've no solid basis but the words they feed. Jeeze, and they are supposedly religious. Meh, they've no right to speak. |
| by Treucko @ 21 March 2008 02:26 pm |
| Two things I'd like to say,
One I have seen too many comics go dead and the story incomplete. Two Some people are way up tight about 'God' personaly I think its just a fairy tale ment to get children to behave but Lesnick is way out of line and has too much too say and is completely bias. Oh and just desided to add a third... Name one person who has ever been original Lesnick (I dont care whether or not your still reading and I dont realy care) |
| by Treucko @ 21 March 2008 02:39 pm |
| Stuck between Being an Atheist and an
Agnostic Reading this comic and one of the worlds oldest fairytale, Im hoping that that athiest's are right. |
| by Sitrel @ 21 March 2008 08:03 pm |
| This will be the first time I swear on a coment page, I'm sorry but I hope I don't ever have to do this again,
LESNICK, Or PROFJECTLOL or Whatever your name is, You are a self supporitve bastard who does not understand the wider world, god is god, Jason is Jason, if you took the time and effort to read and understand, you would find that Jason fully explains ALL YOUR POINTS before hand, he clearly states this is not based on the actual bible or anything close, HE CLEARLY STATES that the plotline has taken ideas from other sources, BUT THEN AGAIN WHO HASN'T!? and the erotic comic which he had mentioned a while back he finally decided against! so why the hell are you bringing that up!? I hate people like you the most who mistake religion for Faith, you who would so readily insult and harm others when your GOD so clearly states that THOU SHALT LOVE THINE ENEMY! YOU WHO WOULD SAY UNTO OTHERS THAT THEY ARE BOTH IGNORANT AND BEASTLIKE IS A SIN IN ITSELF FOR IT IS HARM! You, are a self appointing Dick, and If you can't see that, then you are not only wrong, but ignorant of other. |
| by Xel @ 21 March 2008 08:41 pm |
| O.o; wow, this is getting to be a real battleground, isn't it? Maybe you should log and block IP addresses... have some sort of power as a mod. Although, lots of comments can probably increase the popularity of a comic...
Can't wait for the next update though! Also, I agree with Sitrel: everyone takes their ideas from somewhere else. |
| by Riunin @ 21 March 2008 10:47 pm |
| hey just wanted to point out, and rub it in lesnick/prjectlol's nose a little, I wholeheartedly enjoy this comic, I enjoy the semi-religious view although I am an atheist and just wanted to say keep up the good work Jason, good of you not to get pissed about this insistant asshole, and its certainly a good idea to let the dumbass advirtise for you.
oh and to the insistant asshole in question: You are religious correct? You are pissed because you beleive someone who is not a member of your religion is misunderstanding or misinterpreting it correct? Well it is in his rights to do so, if you were a good christian or whatever you are you'd turn the other cheek and love thy neighbor and all that jazz. Every man woman and child on your god's earth is entitled to their own opinion because your god gave them free will. I realize you are trying to set the record straight, but trolling a webcomic artist is not all that productive in the grand scheme of things, don't you agree? Now calm down, go grafitti your damn bridge and stop bugging semi-productive members of society. I apoligize for calling you an asshole lesnick/projectlol but i call it like i see it, oh yes and remember no one likes being preached to unless they're at church/mosque ect. |

| Xel, unfortunatelly when you ban an IP there is always the possibility someone else could have the same one in the near future besides the person, so an innocent would be temporarilly banned... |
| by Nonesuch @ 22 March 2008 06:09 am |
| Man Jason, who did you sleep with to piss them off so badly? I mean come on man, if that's not a pissed off lover (gay or otherwise) then I've never heard one before! But whatever, I hope to enjoy your comic, stolen of otherwise ^.^;; further. Rock on man! |
| by Xel @ 22 March 2008 07:34 am |
| Well yeah, but it's either that, or make people have accounts to comment... and it's nice not having to... though, for some people, it is possible to just get another IP address... dunno. ^^; |
| by urah03 @ 22 March 2008 09:44 am |
| Wow! Good job, You must have done a damn good job working on your comic that it sparked such a heated debate; that readers cared enough about it to seriously take your plotline as a message about faith.
I am an agnostic and i am Lai's side not because I beleve he is right, or in his intentions as a story teller. but, beause see the normal blown out of proportion responce of the heavily religion involved. You should have expected this from the start, if you thought your story was any good, wich i gather you did not. Only well crafted storys spark controversy. |
| by Treucko @ 22 March 2008 02:20 pm |
| This is one 'HELL' of a biblical dibate.
As for all you irritating ******** who have your heads so far up your *** that you cant see the sun. Shut up! and put up! I got a friend on mine to read this comic (she is catholic) (which has no major difference between Christianity) She quite enjoyed the comic. Only said what I said because It may irritate any God fearing loud mothed twats that have or may dis this comic in future. So... I think I'm done for now... Later! :) |
| by That_Guy @ 22 March 2008 09:54 pm |
| Gratz Jason on your first stalking hater. It usually takes a little bit, and even then its private most of the time. But you got full blown hater waisting his time babbling! Thats gotta bring up the ego knowing you got someone that mad at you so they would waist time to write such long threats and make up so many intricate stories. We should hold a party! |
| by Wicked @ 22 March 2008 10:02 pm |
| I'm a Catholic as well.
And I support this comic wholeheartedly. |

| ok one last comment to the haters, you all seem to think your smarter than everyone else so I'm going to talk to you in a language you think you understand:
Every oral retort that has come out of your vocal orifice has astounded me with it's stupidity. Please take that equine sized false reproductive organ out of your deification organ and place it with great force in your vocal orifice... oh wait... they are the same orifice. props to everyone who isn't one of the haters and understands that. moving on... i express my wholehearted support for this comic, i write comics myself (havent got them on the web YET), and this is a damn good serious comic, go Jason also because its funny and kinda pertains to this, my main character killed jesus and the anti-christ at the same time with a headshot using his pistol, vwahahahaha |

| Hi everyone,
Hooray for the people making sound arguments and emphasizing Jason's purpose! I'm agnostic leaning towards Christian, and I understand how people can get bent out of shape by a statement such as "God was an asshole", but the people who are disgusted by the comic don't seem to realize that fiction is fiction. I say, no matter what your beliefs, you should respect not only other people's beliefs, but their right to take bits of your dogma and mythos to create fiction. It's been done for years and years, and people always get flak for it. But I know I personally, a lot of readers of this comic, and many fans of anime and manga (much of which has religious over/undertones and modifications) are interested in this sort of twisted religious fiction. Anyway. Intelligent conversation = good. Bashing each other = bad (though it is a bit hard not to yell at someone who is intolerant and hateful). Now let's enjoy some comicy goodness! |

| As a christian, I just want to request that you please don't think that all christians of us are like Lesnick, or that a large portion are really. I am ashamed that someone who claims to worship the same God that I do would stoop so low as to do this to Jason. I am truly sorry that this had to happen to you of all people. Please don't think that the majority of people who believe in God think like lesnick. I love your comic and I respect you for your belief. It is not my place to try to convert you or to bash you for what you do on your webcomic, nor is it anyone else's place to do so, but as we can't keep those negative types out I would like to point something out: all the worst messages in forums are easily found because it is easier for people to be negative in a place where nobody knows who they are.But the positive people have less incentive to post because they dont have the need to relieve some stress from their real life out on the hard wroking people who make the web not quite as bad a place to be in. So when you look around all the forums and see that they are filled with flamers, instead of just assuming that the group they represent is filled with people like them, please understand they are simply the loud few who like to make a whole lot of noise for no positive reason, their reasons are not to promote the cause they state it is simply to make themselves feel better by putting others down. If you dont mind I will post this in the next comments section too. |

| Having grown up Christian, I have to apologize on behalf of Christianity as a whole for Lesnick. I don't think I've ever met anybody that overconfident and bigoted in my life. I for one, think that Jason is doing an amazing job, and I love reading his work. The difference between being sacrilegious and telling a story can be difficult to understand, but Jason said from the get-go he wasn't basing this on the bible, which technically means that the "god" in the comic is NOT the biblical God. Which is clearly where some people are getting confused. This is set in a FICTIONAL world, thus it would stand to reason that this is a "fictional" god.
As for the erotic art, I'm actually very disappointed that didnt go ahead. The human body is one of God's most beautiful creations and I think the taboos about it are ridiculous. So Jason, if you get around to reading this, keep up the good work. |

| Lesnick stops when he know he's been beaten, just like all people like him.
And what you say, Pheonid, is true. "It is easier for people to be negative in a place where nobody knows who they are." Bravo, my friend, bravo. |
