So if someone is a follower of Thor, does this mean they can carry around a hammer and use that as both a holy symbol and a weapon?

It also means ninjews with Star of David shiruken would be extremely effective against vampires.

*fingers crossed* Poe... poe... poe...

There are several versions about using holy symbols against vampires in fiction.

In some cases it only works if the vampire was/is a follower of that religion but I prefer the version where the wielder of the symbol is the one whos' faith matters.
I think there is a book where a soviet commissar realises that his cross won't work because he is an atheist so he drives away the vampire using a communist symbol. (Either some book or some commissarial symbol, I forget which.) Oh and some rich yuppie banishes vampires by using his wallet since money is the thing that he has devoted his life to.

There is pony related nonsense in spoilers.  I swear it's relevant to the quoted post, but I just wanted to toss it into spoilers to try to decrease the chances of a derail going on.  Hell, posting an actual political cartoon would probably help, but I don't have the time to find one because I'm getting ready for school right now.

*cough*

Anyway, I swear that I'll add pictures to this thread some day.  We get lots of bad political cartoons in my newspaper.  I just have to go and actually find the sources online after I see them.  Barring that, I could scan them. :P
I like the faith of the person with the object mattering more. It shows that the person's faith in something greater than themself is more powerful than the dominating presence of the vampire.

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

On-topic...

That little comic thing is just what the fuck.  So, bad things happen to bad people because Jesus is proxy-spanking them?

(Time for holy run on sentence batman)
So a middle-aged construction worker who (using a hybrid Christian values and REAL values here) prays to God five times daily,
isn't an abusive husband,
raised his kids well (without abuse),
is faithful to his wife,
doesn't swear,
reads his Bible,
attends church every week,
tithes regularly,
works at a charity,
introduced three of his friends to his church,
ends up getting his legs smashed when the crane's cable spontaneously breaks while transporting an i-Beam,
has to pay for the hospital bill out of pocket because his insurance company refuses to cover it,
gets fired "laid off" from his job,
can't get another job because he's too old "Too close to retirement age", and
nearly dies from a heart attack due to stress from all of the above
is somehow a bad person who God is proxy-spanking for whatever reason?

Or, if it only applies to kids, how about...
A kid who loves to go to Church,
who gets good grades,
helps his fellow students with schoolwork without cheating,
does his chores around the house without asking for money for it,
spends his allowance wisely,
eats his vegetables,
does fundraisers to help raise money for the poor and hungry,
prays to God every night before going to bed,
ends up developing leukemia,
undergoes painful radiation and chemotherapy,
ends up living a half-existence for months and months due to the process killing some of his brain cells,
can't keep up with schoolwork anymore due to not having the brain capacity, and
ends up not being able to graduate from high school because he just can't think
...is somehow being proxy-spanked by Jesus for something?

FUCK THAT SHIT.

Even as a Christian, I know that bad things happen because bad things happen.  That comic is creepy.  Is it by Chick or sommat?

The place I got it from didn't give any background, but now that you mention it, it does look like Fred Carter's art.

Sorry, Timmy, but you brought that leukemia on yourself when you forgot to wash your hands before dinner last month.

We've been over this. In some episode of Atop the 4th wall we find out that batman believes that his parents died because he listened to rock music.

Seriously, he listened to rock (well one song that happened to be on the radio), his dad got angry and forbid him from doing it again and later that night his parents were shot.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Actually, I didn't consider the pedophilic potential of that picture until after I posted my message :S That's some disturbing latent pedophilia there.
