Yep. The only thing I would change would be the last line to: "Revenge of
Jesus Christ. He's back. And he's pissed."
Really, someone needs to save Christianity from Christians. (And save the
rest of us from the theocracy.)

True. I agree 100%.

Funny to find that here... I read Sinfest pretty regularly, but I'm
never quite sure what the author's stance is on religion. Sometimes it
comes accross as really preachy.

I don't know what the author's views on religion are, but he does
satirize the Fundamentalists a lot.

Quick history:
Tatsuya Ishida was a student was UCLA circa 1993, and sinfest was a
regular feature on the school newspaper.
As you know, Ishida prefaces his comic strip with some silly saying
(for example: "The Source of All Your Power" in this one). Well, one
of them in 1993 say something to the effect of "Born-Again Satan
Worshipper". The Bible-thumpers on campus went apeshit. The more
interesting part was that more people defended Ishida then attacked
him. Most of them went along the line of "get a life dude".
Ishida had a great time with it. His next few comic strips tweaked the
Bible thumpers. I don't think he's an atheist, but he was no
fundamentalist.

That's really interesting... Sinfest was one of the first webcomics I
discovered when I first got online a few years ago, and I really love
Ishida's art style. These days I'm more interested in strips like
Goats.com and the rest of the dumbrella sites, but I still drop in at
Sinfest every now and then.
And yeah, he's clearly not a fundie. I can't see all the "god as
puppeteer" strips going down to well with that crowd.

Ishida has this hilarious comic strip in reply to the fundies.
The gist of the story:
The goody-two-shoe character (the dude with a halo ) gets a phone call
from an irate fundie and he tried to pacify him, when all of a sudden
the main male protagonist grabs the phone from the goody-two shoe dude
and declares that they are actually a secret Satanic group aimed at
converting all Christians to Satanism. In the backgournd you see the
goody-two shoe dude passing out from sheer shock.
