almost missed this Chick-y goodness: Four Angels?

Wherein we learn that people aren't (literally) stabbed in the back so long as they don't make their guardian angel angry with porn.
 
So, 75% of angels are incompetent slackers?
No, they are our brothers and sisters ...

5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.

6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.

7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. ~ Revelation 19:5-10
Well, they are if this passage is to be taken literally anyway.
 
*sniff* I remember my first Chick Tract. I thought it was a parody.

Oh, those were heady days... when my faith in humanity was unshaken.
 
Why doesn't Henry's guardian angel keep him from injuring his face all the time?
 
How can anyone in their right mind (that being the operative phrase) follow this stuff? And what's with the Liberace-looking preacher?

Satan was right next to the guy and the angel wasn't doing a thing. This is gross negligence, and that angel should have been fired.
 
It's nice that Chick is willing to attack televangelists, I guess. Chick, of course, is not like those guys. He's quite sincerely insane.

I find it funny how Bobby's boss tells him to "give up his religion." Chick has addressed that sort of subject, but I find it funny that in this comic the boss simply tells him to do so without any comprehensible reason. He just says "we're playing hardball" as if that even made sense. It's an amusing example of Chick's persecution complex, unless I'm misreading it. Also, the bit about how "Henry's life will never be the same again" implies that Chick might take predestination seriously, which is interesting.

Otherwise, it's a pretty standard "God hates wishy-washy churchgoers" Chick Tract nonsense.
 
What about Tom?
I'm sorry I hit you again. I need to be saved ... right?
He not only continually winds up behind bars (drunk and disorderly? drugs? criminal violence?) but he has no qualms about assault and battery on Henry. How can Henry in good conscience think that Tom's wife needs that?
