Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Ah, so we can kill people for not doing what we want, as long as we warn them first?
Then if they don't do what we say, their death was self-inflicted.
Seems reasonable.
No? That's not what it means.
Let me try an analogy: suppose you got out in a snowstorm, God is someone who loves you and got after you to light a fire so you can be warm, what happens if you still insist on going away?
It is though.
"Choosing to turn away from him" means not doing what he tells you to do. And as a result of this, he punishes you with eternal damnation.
It's not like him saying "Don't jump off that cliff or you'll die!".
It's "Do exactly as I say, or I will personally ensure that you suffer for eternity."
