In Praise of Folly
it has been said that Erasmus laid the egg that Luther hatched. Erasmus was an outspoken critic of the catholic church, but he remained catholic until the day he died. he debated Luther and didn't like the endless separation of the protestants yet he also saw their zeal and how right they were on many issues.
if you want a good chuckle, check out Erasmus' In Praise of Folly which can be read here.

You can have you're brats
I like my sausage revolutionary!
Ulrich Zwingli was another reformer who argued with Luther about the meaning of the Eucharist. he lead the reform in Zurich and is know for allowing the citizens of Zurich to eat sausage during Lent.
many catholics thought that if this were to happen, a whole town would be blighted a-la Sodom and Gemmorah style... when this didn't happen, many townsfolk hopped on board Zwingli's plan for reform.
if i were a better artist, this would be rendered like a Che poster, but so it goes... enjoy!

Reformation Funnies
So i haven't had a whole lot of time to get back to these... I'm also experiencing a little writer's block. this is why i didn't go into cartooning and why i'm at seminary instead.
but here is an offering i can show ya, it's a drawing i did for my church history class today.
this illustrates what i think John Calvin to be. it's based on his seal, the "heart in hand" seal with the phrase "Always Reforming" around it. plus Calvin took joy in his work and a tirelessness about it.. so much so that the highest praise he gave his wife was that "She was a good and humble wife and didn't interfere with my work."
A bad stereotype about Calvin is that he was some zealous, nasty, strict and brutish reformer. After studying him he was zealous, but a quiet, work-aholic who wrote and constantly revised his work. He was the bookish guy who wanted to make sure a structure was in place so that society wouldn't collapse around him. His concerns were all pastoral based, not theoretical.

My First Series
Ann the Bat is asking the Unidactyl characters what their definition of happiness is... what she finds is that happiness is a relative term.
i appologize for the quality of these toons as i've tried to minimize the editing to save time. this is to spend more time on papers i should be doing and less time on here goof'n around.
one change you'll note is "Linear Dog" has become "Wadi." Thanks to the Egypt trip, LD got a new name! that makes two characters named after Egyptian sites... Wadi's are dry river beds and Scetis (pronounced SKATE-tis) is a monestary where all the works of the mystics were kept until that library burned down in the 4th century.
i hope you enjoy this series!
