Yeah, and he was roundly despised for it (and justly so!) I do not believe that anyone ever converted to Christianity as a consequence of reading any of Jack Chick’s gospel tracts. But I do believe that thousands of Christians were converted by them into something else — something more like the ugly dishonesty and nasty triumphalism that were those tracts’ main attributes. He helped persuade such Christians that bearing false witness against their neighbors should be the hallmark and cornerstone of their religion. https://www.patheos.com/blogs/slacktivist/2016/10/24/haw-haw-haw/ https://www.patheos.com/blogs/slacktivist/2016/10/24/haw-haw... If he was just an angry bitter old man, it'd be easier to pity him: how awful to live your life in that headspace, right? But he did damage, too, and that's harder to just feel sorry for.
