QuoVadis brought it to my attention that I do, in fact, have a worst strip. He posted it as his favorite strip in this thread's opposite. It's the one with Jesus doing the superhero thing, and it ends with him being crucified and people booing at him. I found that one really tasteless, as I said in the other thread.

Man, a lot of the strips here are absolutely tasteless, what redeems them is that they are funny. I don't remember getting the memo that the crucifixion of Jesus was off-limits. Admittedly, the strip in question wasn't all that funny to me, but still, 1st amendment ftw.

This is a lot more fun than just the lyrics.

Okay, so it's edgy, sexy and you're going to Hell for reading it, but is it any good? Lets be honest, it suffers from the same problem most strip comics have, and that's the roller coaster where you have the strips that will make you wet yourself from laughing too hard, followed by the ones that are either way above your head, make sense only to the creators, or simply aren't funny. Really the problem is common. Everyone, from the Penny Arcade guys right down to Bill Watterson of Calvin & Hobbes have a few strips in their arsenal that don't quite live up to the bar they set. It's to be expected, and this book isn't immune to the problem.

It's a nice song, but it's exactly the opposite of what Jesus taught, which is that there isn't an 'end,' but in fact things continue forever: which means that someone must eventually clean up every mess that is made, whether external or internal.

I'm sure you knew that, but I just wanted to highlight how completely opposite to 'hope' that song actually is. The instant the song ends, cold oblivion returns, which is the realization that success is no longer possible, and that the unpleasant 'now' is in fact, eternal and unchangable. All dreams and possibilities consumed by bitterness and regret.

This is the true difference between God and man, which is that God solves all problems, regardless of their difficulty, while man whines, and fantasizes about being pitiful and the center of attention, never stopping to realize how selfish this is, and how powerless this makes him.
