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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The flood sounds quite like collective punishment.
They deserved it. Everyone but Noah, which is why he was saved
They did not deserve it, and the Egypt thing is a bald faced lie. They were never enslaved there.
If they were never enslaved there, then wouldn't that mean the plagues never happened? What's your point?
Correct. It's all bullshit fairy tales.
The point is NONE of it happened. Any more than any of the "miracles" and such Christianity plagiarized from predecessor religions happened.
Source?
The innocents were saved from it
Would the foetuses of any of the damned by considered guilty? I presume there must have been a few pregnant women murdered by that malevolent deity in that fairy story of your ilk (if you're not on the wind-up, might I add).
If anyone innocent was killed, they would have went to paradise anyway
So god could kill as many innocents unjustly as he wants, as long as he sends them to paradise after?
If so, it seems, any atrocity god commits could be justified.
Eternity in paradise > a temporary life
So yes as long as god sends people to the good place he can be as horrible as he wants to them before they die. Is there anything god could do that you would consider evil or unjust even if the people affected go to paradise at some point after? Or is not sending innocent bystanders he hurts to paradise the only thing god could do you would consider evil?
Paradise forever and also being healed still outweighs the worst torment that satan can do to you on earth.
