R. Crumb illustrates the book of Genesis

Go figure. He was on Talk of the Nation today talking about. Said that he's fascinated by old stories. Audio and a drawing from the book at:

Not sure, I know he said on the interview that he tried to make people look like what Jews of the era might have. God similarly, who knows.

Heard a review of it a few days ago. Reviewer was surprised and found it very good. It made me consider buying it. Can't be all bad due to the fact that most youth of today have no clue about the bible. I may buy a copy for my daughter.

Oft times, the most ignorant are the ones who believe it the most. A few stories about God cutting off penises and slaughtering children is a good eye opener.

Isn't that how mohels train for the real deal?

How's this for an upcoming holiday-season horror flick...

"I Was A Teenage Mutant Ninja Mohel"

It would make Freddie Krueger seem like Vince Offer, "The Slapchop" guy...

The girls will be holding the guys! (in more ways than one...)

Many artists turn to religion at some point. History shows it’s an easy way to make money without the strain of being creative.
