The Fifth Evangel

Updated: Apr 17

Drawn on March 7, 2024 |

My God! I don't know what's more terrifying: Hawking the DJT edition of the King James Bible as the harbinger of novel Revelation, its intricately illustrated illuminations, or the fact that a grainy recording of "God Bless The USA" plays in a loop, like a Hallmark birthday card, at every page turn.


For what it's worth, here's an unpopular observation. The sermon on the mount is not a good argument to drive the point that Trump is antithetical to Jesus when these two main-characters both use the same mixture of flabby compassion to sway their gullible flock and caution contrarian bystanders with augurs of insurrection or hell. Is it not conceivable to imagine that Evangelical Christians, and their derivative religious cohorts, are more susceptible to Trump’s (or anyone else’s) messianic claims if they’re naturally preconditioned to take things on faith rather than reason?


(This was drawn about a month before the Trump-endorsed Bible blessed the world. Probably a sign to lay off the holy wine for numinous inspiration...)
