This cartoon is in response to the post written by Thabiti Anyabwile at the Gospel Coalition blog network titled, “The Importance of Your Gag Reflex When Discussing Homosexuality and Gay Marriage”. Read it if you want a perfect example of hateful and abusive language against a people group. Read more

Arizona will finally be free of homosexuals!

Last updated on: August 22, 2013 at 10:05 am By David Hayward

(***UPDATE: Apparently this is a hoax. However, let’s pretend it’s true, as many would like it to be and many honestly do think this way.) Sit any 12 year old child down who thinks he’s gay and tell him: “Listen! You’re really not a homosexual. God created you heterosexual. So you’re disobeying God. You’re sinning. You are turning yourself into a freak. Now you have a gay demon, and it’s all your fault. Things will not go well for you.... Read more

the anger clock: time to stop being angry NOW

Last updated on: August 21, 2013 at 5:57 pm By David Hayward

Anger. Scary emotion. But real. In fact, necessary and even healthy. One of the stages of grief. You can’t avoid it. You can’t rush it. But you can get over it. Give it all the time it needs. Don’t let people turn it around to make it your fault or a symptom of your weakness. Don’t allow people to guilt you into thinking you’re sinning when you’re angry. They are just spiritualizing their discomfort and protecting the perpetrator and blaming... Read more

the church submergent

Last updated on: August 21, 2013 at 8:56 am By David Hayward

I wasn’t sure what to label the iceberg because there are so many things challenging the church today. So I decided to leave it blank and let you fill it in. What I see are lots of attempts at tweaking the church to make it either more cool or more biblical. That is, there are two extremes. One is to try to keep up with what’s cool and contemporize or relevantize the church without losing touch with its history. The... Read more

masters and servants keep things orderly

Last updated on: August 20, 2013 at 8:32 am By David Hayward

Even though there is a lot of pressure to conform to this world order, don’t! Even though there is a lot of pressure to conform to this religious order, don’t! The religious use of biblical language about masters and servants and slaves and redemption and bought with a price and bondservant and lord and service and unquestioning obedience, etcetera, all come from an age when slavery was an assumed, acceptable and even enviable way of life. I’ve been encouraged and... Read more

the christian necessity for men to lead women

Last updated on: August 19, 2013 at 5:11 pm By David Hayward

I came across this post, “What Kind of Guy Culture Tells Us To Be and Why Ryan Gosling Isn’t That Great”. He suggests that we are receiving our role-models on how to be a man from the Hangover movies (too fun-loving), from the hit song “Blurred Lines” (too sexually confident), and from Ryan Gosling’s character in “The Notebook” (too passionate). Personally, if my daughter met a guy like Noah in The Notebook who loved her passionately and stayed with her... Read more

are believers stupider than atheists?

Last updated on: August 19, 2013 at 8:41 am By David Hayward

I read an interesting article by Kimberly Winston called “Are Atheists Smarter Than Believers? Not Exactly”. There’s a new study out after a century of research suggesting that the smarter you are, the less likely you are to believe in God. Here’s an interesting and insightful paragraph: “The study also concludes that more intelligent people are less likely to believe in God because they are more likely to challenge established norms and dogma. They are also more likely to have... Read more

where are we going to find God?

Last updated on: August 19, 2013 at 7:41 am By David Hayward

My cartoons are often satirical. That is, they illustrate a popular idea in such a way that we may laugh at it. So this cartoon is an attempt in that direction. For example, there is no god looking like my father sitting on a throne in heaven. And if there was he wouldn’t be struggling to decide which religion to give himself to. Also, the cartoon says that there is a division between religions and that such a god can... Read more

misogyny, sticky notes and bonfires

Last updated on: August 17, 2013 at 9:24 am By David Hayward

I can’t believe all the sexist, misogynist stuff flying around the internet by the flockful pooping all over everything. It’s rampant! Like one of my recent twitter updates: “Stupidity’s not increasing, but the publication of it is.” Sexism and misogyny have been around a long time. It’s just that now more people get to proclaim it. Freedom of speech, even if it is hate speech. It’s uglier when wrapped in religious garb. It’s also more powerful because it says it’s... Read more

The Clandestine Christ

Last updated on: August 16, 2013 at 8:24 am By David Hayward

I created a motto I live by: What is real remains; what is false falls away. With the rise of fundamentalism we are, I trust, witnessing the rise of equality for all. After all, that’s what fundamentalism is: a reactionary response to what it fears, can’t control, and hates which begins defensively but often ends offensively. Rather than assuming the old method of working within the system to affect change, many completely bypass established systems to create alternative lifestyles and... Read more
