Littering For Jesus
[su_publirb]
Evangelist believes in killing them with litter.
The tracts appear to be Starbucks gift cards, driver’s licenses and credit cards, noted the Friendly Atheist.
But the cards are fake and display proselytizing messages on the back.
Comfort recently told people via Facebook, “How do you give out this tract? You just drop it. That’s all.”
The fake cards are sold in stacks of 100 on the Living Waters ministry website for $8, but neither the website or Comfort inform people that littering is a crime in California and elsewhere.

Does anyone here remember Jack Chick tracts from the 70s? You’d mostly find them in bathroom stalls.
They were like a really good, very bad movie — like Troll 2, Reefer Madness or Plan 9 from Outer Space,

This is from the Wikipedia page about Jack Chick tracts.

As a parent, I’d be far more worried about creepy Uncle Bob being alone with Samantha than all the Harry Potter or “occultic” paraphernalia in the world.

I don’t know what a “tract” is, but the Jehovah’s like to pass out their “Watch Tower” thing and basically shows that if you even have an inappropriate thought, you’re going to hell. They make the Catholics look benevolent. I’d make Purgatory possibly there.

I never thought about it before… but “tract” is an odd word, isn’t it? I have no idea why it is called that.
A tract is a short prosteltyzing piece of literature. I don’t think it has to be religious but it usually is.

I see the word “tract” and I think a piece of land.

The two meanings derive from different origins. A tract of land comes from the Latin word for “drawing out,” the other comes from the Middle English word for “treatise.” Lots of English words are like that.

Right-ring Xtians would adopt needy people. It would be more effective to get more “souls”.
