Comic #5 : "A Mad Man With A Cross"
Saturday 30th March 2013
I came up with this comic idea late at night, and was in two minds as to whether I should include it in this series as it was a) slightly risque and b) slightly off topic.
In the end I decided to include it as my intended audience for this comic is one that follows geek culture. Also, with regards to the religious aspect - this isn't a criticism of religion itself or those who follow religion, it's a criticism of the members of the Catholic church who either engaged in the awful behaviour or were responsibile in covering it up.
I have zero problem with people who choose to follow a religion, but if you think that the those in the Vatican who were responsible for putting the supposed 'good of the church' ahead of the 'well being of the children under its care' and the 'justice for the victims' and protected child abusers in the process are beyond criticism and you have a problem with this comic then I'm not forcing you to read it.
Ok, so that wasn't the funniest or light hearted of notes.
