I'm an ill-tempered git at the best of times, quick to anger and supplied with a very short fuse.

It's a sickening misuse of a very sacred calling. Can women be warriors. Of course, but it has nothing to do with gender. Warriorship is a matter of mindset, training, and strength of spirit. there is a ruthlessness inherent in it, a willingness to do what is [not right, not bad but] necessary in any situation at hand. To call people warriors becuase they've survived an illness, or because they have stood up for themselves, or left an abusive situation is to demean both the term itself and the worth of the persons involved. It sends me into quite a rage too ( ... )

Gahhh.

Jack Chick Hell is remarkably inclusive. It has places for Catholics, Muslims, Wiccans--indeed any denomination that isn't Chick-ism.
