Wow... I haven't thought about him in YEARS... Used to chuckle over the tracts that I'd find.

I heard this yesterday.  Figured there'd be a thread here eventually.

Well, RIP Mr. Chick.  

I certainly won't judge a man I never met, but his writings seemed to portray a very troubled soul.  If that's so, hopefully he has found peace now.

Or... He's getting the biggest shock of his life....
Hmmm... Movie idea...  Guy who is against RPGs and campaigns against them his whole life dies and finds that the afterlife is one big RPG...  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

Well, to be fair Chick campaigned against alot of things.  He tilted at alot of windmills in his life.  RPGs were just one of them.

But, Yeah, that would be kinda funny. The poor guy dies and gets sorted into whichever one of the Outer Planes matches his alignment.  Maybe he'll run into EGG on the way through the astral plane.  Imagine that conversation.

I feel like there's a fanfic waiting to be written along those lines.   :D

When I was a child (late 60s and 70s) I used to ride my bike to the local Christian bookstore every week and read a bunch of Chick tracts.  I didn't believe them, but enjoyed them as over-the-top horror (I'm a big horror fan).  They were like little versions of Creepy and Eerie magazines :)
