    I bet he’s had a secret love affair with a faerie or something. BAD DEATH, BAD, THAT’S NOT ALLOWED

    I love the ‘Oh Snap’ tag. Also, anyone else notice the ‘Genesis’ title of the book?

    Bit disappointing, I would like it more If Death was more religious while Mary more scientific. That would make a fine/fun argument about evolution and creation.

    But now it’s just one way street.

      Landbark – Just because Death thinks the creation story, ark story, etc. are just bronze age Hebrew mythology doesn’t mean he’s not religious.

      Having been around since the beginning Death knows the real story. Perhaps he’ll let us know some of it… Perhaps not…

      On the other hand Mary, having contact with an actual supernatural being, must be forced to combine science and the supernatural.

        Genesis -was- shoehorned in later, iirc, but I’m not certain. It’s far from my areas of expertise.

    Isn’t the idea of death as anthropomorphic personification a bit of a fairy tale all its own?

    I love this comic strip!

    I find stuff like this distasteful. I’ve long since stopped being religious, but my parents still are and it just feels insulting to them to read/hear people making such pointed jabs. It’s such low humor.

    Interesting. Let’s all take a second and look at where all the trash talk is coming from.

    The fact that so many cultures have developed a notion of a high power (or several) does not prove that a higher power must exist. It simply means that human beings feel a desire for one to exist.
    Still, absence of evidence isn’t evidence of absence.
