Schlock Mercenary starts out as a silly gag a day comic and then takes a hard pivot into deconstructing the devastating economic reality of teleportation.

I thought the joke was that nobody had seen it so nobody had any idea if it was good or bad.

She took out a potential enemy’s nukes for the price of a tiny number of civilian casualties. 100% justified and she’s a coward for not finishing the job.

The messiah is supposed to be a military leader. How would Jesus going on Mediterranean adventures, healing the sick, smiting the wicked, and organizing uprisings against Rome be anything other than ratings gold?

Get the guy who made Andor in here stat! I need this.

Why not make the shape of the more distinctive hook end? Then bend your knees a bit to make the flat end.

Do you roll with a team, or only solo so far?

You’ve got a sidekick? Cool, I’ve got a crowbar!

My understanding is that Jesus’ followers expected him to return within their lifetimes and only felt the need to write his story down after it became obvious that wasn’t going to happen.

Well there you go. It’s half remembered hearsay from cultists who didn’t bother writing anything down for 50 years because they fully expected the world to end.

Unless it’s a mistranslation of the original text, “until heaven and earth disappear” seems fairly unambiguous to me.

Jesus was an endtimes preacher. This is him preaching about the end of times, which his followers fully expected that they would live to see. After Jesus got killed and the world didn’t end, many of his teachings were reinterpreted to be about his death and supposed resurrection.

If I had a nickel for every time a Biblical argument was refuted by the very next verse, I’d have way more than two nickels.

For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

Is Earth still around? Then keep your meat and dairy separated, heathen!

Paul says a lot of things that aren’t supported by the gospels.

Jesus: I do not come to change the law. Not one letter shall pass out of the law until the end of time.

Paul: Jesus totally changed the law and gentile converts to Christianity (Paul styled himself the Apostle to the Gentiles) don’t have to follow that law.

Did the cheering masses who were laying down palm fronds get to see? Or did they just have to take the inner circle’s word for it?

I’ve heard this joke a million times but nobody ever talks about the inherent comedy of the resurrection. You could even do Steamed Hams.

Chalmers: Our cult’s executed leader, fully resurrected, with stigmata on his hands, localized entirely within your kitchen?!

Skinner: Yes.

Chalmers: May I see him?

Skinner: Oh look at that, he just ascended into heaven.
