It's a pretty spectacular piece of garbage

rad.

A pun thread? Sine me up!

Ok, but can you see why that abrupt turn in the conversation might confuse readers? It's just not really clear what the intent of the strip is.

You are putting words into my mouth and misunderstanding what I am saying. The male character's counter-argument isn't valid either way, but it makes more sense as a response to "this is a sexist trope" than to "these directors are using their Cassandra characters to reflect real-world misogyny."

The distinction between the resurrected Jesus and a zombie Jesus is nuanced enough that it would probably not be immediately obvious to most people who are not Christians.

Additionally, in the context of a movie, where the audience knows there really is some danger, it makes the Cassandra character more sympathetic.

The whole argument of this comic is kind of odd. While horror movies have long had a pattern of using sexist tropes, the whole point is usually that the scary element of the movie is implausible. If anyone came up to me and said something like "this house is full of ghosts that are trying to kill us," I would…

No religion is really simple enough that nonmembers can absorb its nuances just by virtue of its sheer omnipresence, don't be ridiculous.

Well, it's pretty douchey to talk shit about people on national tv without discussing the issue with them first.

No, it is you who is mistaken.

It's really just the owner, who has been an asshole for a long time. He was one of 5 people who liked Tom Corbett.
