Right or wrong th way I look at it is, if there really is a judgement day I just think you’ll be judged more on how you live your life day to day and how you treat people you meet in your life rather than where you show up every Sunday
I remember a comic strip years ago, “One Big Happy” maybe.Woman: I’m not religious, but I’m very spiritual.Little Girl: What does that mean?Grandfather: It means she believes in things like ghosts and astrology.Woman: That’s a very cynical attitude. What’s your sign?
I think be spiritual towards cats is a wonderful thing. Seeing Les become so attached to Punk made me like him a lot more. I presume he’s also become more bearable as a roommate, despite the weird Lime-asphalt cologne which, judging by Gunther’s expression, must have a very unpleasant odor.
Religion is about rules, regulations, over the top churches, power and money, lots and lots of money. Spirituality is about a personal connection with your deity(s), as in “Hey DUDE, how’s it going?”
Dealing with theme, and PUNK the adorable “CAT”!From my favorite Pickles strip.Roscoe: They feed me, bathe me, give me treats…. They must be God. Muffin: They feed me, buy me scratch toys, ….I must be a God! Apologies for the memory lapses on the exact wording. Especially to the cat!

Awwww.. Punk is adorable!
It’s nice to see Les and Gunther again.. It’s been a while.
Will we ever find out if he put back up all his posters after Tiff left? ;)

Any interesting choice of characters for today’s strip, and an interesting joke.

Wow.
A profound thought provoking question.
From Les no Les!
Looks like he’s finally growing a brain.
So maybe it’s time he attended Jr. College in order to get a better job than a mere “dishwasher.”
Besides, IMO, it would be FUN to place him in close proximity to Tara.
Oh.
And maybe it’s time the fans banded together and started a “Go Fund Me” to buy these lads some descent furniture. ;-)

They both can related or separate :Religion is a set organized beliefs and practices. Spirituality is more of and individual practice.

Lime and asphalt cologne ? I know some blue-collar workers in South Texas who’d go for that, especially if you’d mix a little diesel fuel in it.

Until recently, I’ve been there—a man & his cat. Now that Lucy has shuffled off this mortal coil, I continue on. The logical thing to do.

Looks to me as if he’s definitely religious about cats. As he should be, according to our own cat.

This strip is oddly satisfying; perhaps it’s a male-bonding thing. Punk is definitely grown up.
