Weird Tract Number 36: "Never Receive 666, The Mark of The Beast" by Anonymous

This is one of my favorite tracts. In November of 2013, I went to New Haven to the Harvard-Yale football game and promoted our film Ivy League Exorcist: The Bobby Jindal (read about the trip here). I  spent the night at my friend's place in New York City and spent the next day in Manhattan. When I was in the subway, I noticed End Times zombies giving out this tract. It was love at first site (with the tract, not the zombies).

This tract is wonderful; it mentions just about every deranged trope in extreme apocalyptic Christianity: 1) It has illustrated warning against taking The Mark Of The Beast (in the form of an RFID Chip; these illustrations were the basis for one of my illustrations in my Chick Tract parody "Donald Trump Is The Antichrist"; see below and read the notes after the tract); 2) It has the same all caps alarmism that you get in forwarded emailed from your confused elderly family members; for instance, "The stage is definitely set for the SECOND COMING OF JESUS CHRIST! THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH IS IMMINENT!" 3) It contains a guide of what to do in case you miss The Rapture and you are stuck in the Buzzkill World Known As The Great Tribulation (you're supposed to devote your life to Jeebus and not to take The Mark of The Beast).

Great stuff!
