The Flying McCoys by Glenn McCoy and Gary McCoy for December 22, 2012

Sad but true.

Because, you know, “bald” is a hair color.

Was this done as an homage to Mort Drucker? There’s a lot of his style in this one.

Can we see how the comics page would turn out if the McCoy brothers had never been born?

Thank God I’m an Atheist and don’t get involved in Religious discussions.

When I saw the top panel, I thought Ronald and Nancy Reagan (more like Richard Nixon’s nose, but wrong hairstyle). Did Glenn make an artistic Freudian slip?

I’ll bet if he got her job he wouldn’t want it for very long.

No but you don’t tend to last long. Or in my case you end up sitting in the halls during religion class until the priests took over teaching it as the teacher couldn’t answer my question. It’s not that I’m an atheists but at the age of 12 I asked “If God is so powerful, couldn’t he have manifested as Buddha, or a cow or any number of things? Or for that reasoning couldn’t the devil have actually tricked us by saying he was God?” That was A a little deep for a 12 yr old and B my parents got called.

I laughed when I read this comic but felt very sad when I read the comments. Since I truly believe and have a great love of a personal God, I just find it sad…One can never tell someone what to believe, but the atheiests feel it is their duty to try to convince us to not love someone that we have a personal connection with. Some religious fanatics, however, give Christians a VERY bad name. Live and let live! Peace.

As a survivor of Catholic education, I can say that atheist children would be absolutely forbidden to express their nonbelief. Anyone saying anything that deviated in the slightest from rigid doctrine and catechism was severely disciplined.

It’s fine to force religion on public school students, as long as the American version of “freedom of religion” is adhered to: The freedom to worship Jesus in any of several prescribed ways.

The only thing about the ban on school-led prayer is that the school can’t make kids say prayers. Kids can pray all they want, but those who don’t want to pray don’t have to. Freedom of religion applies to both the freedom to practice AND the freedom to abstain.-Or, freedom of religion = freedom from religion.

For someone to demand that their religion, and only their religion, be forced on all our children takes the largest of egos, extreme selfishness and closed-mindedness, and complete self-righteousness.

Looks like one of Glenn’s insane political cartoons ended up here by mistake. Bring back the guy with the gigantic schnoz and the talking dog. I demand separation of politics and entertainment.

As mentioned above, if you allow one, you have to allow all..But schools should also teach manners and good behavior, which they don’t seem to be today, mostly due to $$ and staff cutbacks.

snerk!!

Oh no wouldn’t want Christianity to be taught equally, wouldn’t that just be terrible!? (sarcasm)

If the devil tricked us by telling us he was God then why does God tell us to fight against the devil?
