If you've never done so
I believe you should check out this webcomic
SinFest
And no, it's not as devious as it sounds.
The artwork is nice
Especially considering that he updates -everyday-
And I mean that.
Never takes a break
and it's always good.

I don't know how he does it
But he manages to incorporate philosophy,
religious concepts, sociology and a whole slew of other things
To combine and make this epic storyline.
It's really innovative.

Mostly, I like the idea that the characters converse with all the major deities
Just like they're regular people, with exceptional powers.
I really wonder what kind of mind this guy has.
I am constantly surprised
and put at ease
just by reading.

It says so much
and yet so very little.
I'm sure you could sit there and try to analyze the comparison of God and the other religious leaders, or you could just enjoy the fact that Slick gets no love from 'Nique
and God loves puppets.

The comic is made of pure awesome.
Sorry, but it is.
I really don't see how anyone could disagree with that.
No, I mean really.
You'd have to be one snobby stuck up sonuvabitch to not appreciate it.
And I mean that.
Even if you don't like it as much as other ones
You can at least appreciate it.
(But it'd be better if you liked it.)

That goes to say a lot about religion in general
But we will not discuss that
...probably never will.
It's just not that interesting to me anymore.
There was a time a few years ago where I'd speak all night long on it.
But since then I've grown to accept my beliefs and the knowledge
that everyone is entitled to their own system of beliefs.
Not to say there's no point in trying to convince people otherwise
But you do have to ask yourself "Why?"
Why would you want to change someone's system of belief.
If it's to prove a point
Then you're probably doing it wrong.
If it's because you really feel it would help them out in life
And/or they seem to be struggling with their current lifestyle/mentality
Then by all means, knock yourself.
But choose your battles wisely.
Parents and Old people have been teaching that lesson for ages
And of course it's not until you get older that you realize just how true that statement is.

Age brings experience
Experience includes a lot of shit
-A lot- of shit.
...sometimes literally.
Hey, you're only human
You have bowels.
Get over it.

Age should also bring understanding and comprehension
Although we often find ourselves stuck in our ways
Because we're comfortable with it
And we're not entirely sure we have the capability to be otherwise.
Such is life.

Even if you are old
Or middle aged
Or even in your twenties
You should still broaden your horizons every now and then
Relax a little
No one's penalizing you for anything
As long as it's legal, you're fine.
And I'm fairly certain reading and enjoying a comic is legal.
...For now it is anyway.

So give it a try
Read SinFest
Enjoy.
