A second New Year's cartoon in progress; this one for the regulars at a forum called Portal Of Evil (adult content) which has a 1700 comment thread on Faithmouse going back a few years, and to which I'm now contributing adult-oriented faithmouse cartoons not appropriate to this site. The toon on POE will update as I work on it until New Year's Day, at which time a completed version will probably find its way back here.

The intended theme of this cartoon (featuring a former president Gerald Ford mask) can be found in Wednesday's A Christmas Greeting linked article.

McClatchy has decided after the the "Red Star" showed its true colors on its editorial page with a vicious attack on the Catholic Church, to dump the paper at a $500,000,000 loss...'

A page of Christmas themed cartoons.

Thanks to Alan Keyes' Renew America for posting a few recent cartoons, including the Stop The ACLU / Copy Machine and most recent Terri Schiavo toon. Pookie18 has added a few toons to his recent Today's Toons threads at Free Republic. Kee-Zeng had added the Neverborn Bad Ass For Life toon to his Kee-Zeng Asiantown page. Thanks to Clyde at Aha! Clyde's been thinking again! (od glorium Dei et bonum hominal) for adding faithmouse to his 'Sunday Funnies' cartoon page. The most recent Terri Schindler Schiavo toon has been posted by Stone Giant to this Glock Talk board. Watidatga posts an older Neverborn toon at this nordic Flevo Festival forum. [~`lil-jordan`~] posts the Neverborn / Bad Ass For Life toon on Gaia Online. Red Guy on Brunchma posts a thread titled Faithmouse, Cuddle with the Wrath! and links to a older cartoon from 2004. RedtheBlue (must be the same fellow) posts a Neverborn image on his site along with a link to faithmouse beneath the admonition Prepare For Pain. The Neverborn / Bad Ass For Life toon (popular) shows up on this Perle0508's German Jappy page. Sandusch at Jappy posts the same. Jordanlewis posts the uncompleted IN YUR CULTURE toon (I decided I just liked Eddie Lumox's from Portal Of Evil's version more) on this Skate Perceptions board (adult content.) Thanks to Fracas for the post of the It's The Season For The Reason toon. A private forum at Walk Club has the 12 Days Of Christmas toon from last years a faithmouse Christmas series, which you can view at the Christmas Collection link at the start of this post. Carolina Cannonball at The Crescat links to faithmouse in her post plugging Paul Nichol's new Catholic Cartoon Blog. All the best to him. Ray at our own Stella Borealis Catholic Roundtable posts the St. Paul Cathedral Christmas card.

Until I can get around to a few revisions on the cartoon below I'll go ahead and call this one completed (for example, I'd like to have the Monstrance Mobile emanating from a specific place.) If you'd like to post this on your blog, it won't change significantly from what you see here-

Official Christmas Card From The Cathedral of St. Paul, Minnesota

The official Christmas card from the Cathedral of St. Paul, St. Paul, Minnesota.

The greeting, as printed on the back-

CHRISTMAS AT THE CATHEDRAL OF SAINT PAUL

The staff members of the Cathdral of St. Paul are serious about our Catholic Faith-but joyful in living it out! Our impressive place of worship can sometimes seem overwhelmingly grand...and so we thought that you might appreciate a touch of down-to-earth humanity in this Christmas greeting. We hope that it may make you smile and feel more at home in our spiritual family. As we are able to laugh at our own occassional silliness, so we are more willing to put with one another's imperfections.

May this season of joy unite us in a deeper communion of love as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ!

-followed by a small picture of two more priests wearing santa claus hats.

As former residents of St. Paul, Chris and I used to be members of the Cathedral, and we kept our membership until earlier this year and the Father Altier / Archbishop Flynn fiasco, at which time we decided it was time to move on. Obviously we're still on the Cathedral's mailing list, which is why we received this card.

Judging by the humorous mis-use of scripture on the card front, I would guess they are not all pretending to be the original St. Nikolaus, Bishop of Myra.

Credit to the original faithmouse for Devilcat's dialogue, which she produced at the drop of a sombero in response to my informing her about the upcoming film.

Please vote for Stop The ACLU

John at Stop The ACLU is in the Air Force Reserves and has been called over to Quatar for four months. I've taken over the posting of his Sunday Funnies, which features my faithmouse cartoon.

With two days left to go in the 'Best of The Top 250 Blogs' category at the 2006 Weblog Awards, Stop The ACLU is around 1,000 votes shy of the first place Feministe.

John has a lot of pride in his blog (rightly so) and would like to make a better showing before the vote ends on the 15th. If you can take the time to click the graphic below and vote for his blog, it would be much appreciated.

New dialogueless cartoon featuring Faithmouse and Devilcat. For What Would Jesus Download.

Thanks to Walt for posting a recent Stop The ACLU toon on his The Political Incorrect Blog: A conservative Christian’s viewpoint when the truth is not always politically correct.

While we're on the subject of being politically incorrect, Faithmouse fan Nissa has started a blog called Gay Chaste Catholic-Proclaiming His Love: There's no 'except Gay people' in 'For God so loved the world..." I'm proud that she's used a few of my cartoons in her first posts, including an older Gaybear toon. In the 'future' series from earlier in the year, which featured faithmouse married and with a family of six children, Gaybear goes straight following devotion to the Blessed Mother. Currently we're back in the present time again, wherein Gaybear is a Gay Christian and accepted by Faithmouse and friends.

So, what the point of all of this? Simply that our fellow Christian's relationship with God deserves our respect, especially if it bears signs of a personal relationship with Christ (humility, prayerfulness, and obedience to The Church being but a few). Probably the most controversial point of my portrayal of Gaybear is that he is more than a pawn of natural forces. God isn't nature; He's the creator of nature, and we have choices.

Next to Neverborn (and, um...Poot) Gaybear is probably my most controversial character, and some might consider him to be my most 'liberal' character. If anything, I use the character to make points for Christ, who loves and understands anyone who chooses to love Him.

It would be nice to add a cartoon or two to the a faithmouse Christmas (Secular's Department store) series which I presented this time last year. At the least I'll go ahead and collect these cartoons together on a separate page. Do my best; as you can see I've been busy.

For the Sunday Funnies at Stop The ACLU.

Faithmouse gets a nod on Top Searched For Women Celebs with the post faithmouse forum/britney spears underwear cartoon (Under Where?) (adult content) for what seems to be no very good reason, until I found this post by Nissa titled faithmouse forum/britney spears underwear cartoon (Under Where?) on her Moreover The Dog Went With Them.

Follow this. A secular site has aggragated a reference to my cartoon, lifting it whole from a post on a fellow Catholic site, in order to enhance their own rankings. I don't know if this is testimony to the popularity of Britney Spears or faithmouse, but I sort of enjoy thinking that it might be at least a little bit faithmouse.

I feel a little guilty about my 'Underwear' cartoon, because like Britney herself it featured no actual underwear. It didn't even have a Britney. So, I owe the internet a true Britney Spears underwear toon. I was pretty lucky to pull off the first one without an uprising from my regular visitors, so let me think about it for a bit.

Thanks to Allan Keyes' Renew America for posting the recent It's The Season For The Reason toon. ArrMatey chronicles the 'Sunday Funnies' feed from Stop The ACLU at Free Press, and includes faithmouse as a searchable tag. Thanks to Allen for the post of the It's The Season For The Reason cartoon at his Is Anybody There? Carolina Cannonball at The Crescat has posted the Naughty/Nice cartoon. Thanks to longtime faithmouse fan Ed Stoffel for adding the livefeed to his front page.

Posted the following recently in a MySpace group-

Found your group and thought you might enjoy one of my recent cartoons.

Using government to suppress expression is repression. The ACLU (our leading national censor-much more powerful than the FCC) and similar groups promote a twisted interpretation of both the rights granted by the First Amendment and Jefferson's original intention of his phrase 'wall of separation between Church and State' as expressed in the Danbury letter, wherein he was assuring a Baptist church that the goverment should not have the power to interfere in religious affairs. If you want to know who's actually defending the right to free expression in this country, try the American Center for Law and Justice and the Thomas More Law Center, where you can find documented many, many cases of anti-Christian repression which have and are making their way through the courts.

Silencing free speech, especially by using the judicial branch as a means of 'prohibiting the free exercise thereof' in public, government controlled settings, isn't free speech. It isn't, never was, will never be-no matter what the anti-Christian bigots would like for you to believe.

Congrats to John at Stop The ACLU for the mention on Brit Humes' Grapevine segment on Fox News. I've said it before, but everyone I've known or ever will know will appear at least once on Fox.

Thanks to 'A.M' for emailing this-

I'm not a Catholic woman, I'm actually a United Methodist, but I love your Never Born cartoon character and the message. I believe that these "comics" (I hesitate to down play their power with that term) are as powerful or perhaps even more powerful than pictures and testimonies since this can reach a larger field of people. Your non-abrasive and adorable character is an excellent ambassador for your cause. -Thank you and Blessings

StudiVZ Karikatur, Und Karikaturansammlung Des Papstes Benedict XVI

Click above to view larger image. Largest.

StudiVZ is a popular German student oriented site, similar to Facebook, which has been completely offline for a few days because of security issues, and also because its very young CEO has been engaged in some very questionable online activity (posting videos of himself stalking young women, and canvasing the Neo-Nazi community both for investors and birthday gifts). StudiVZ promises to be back online sometime on Tuesday.

The text in the above cartoon -'studiVZ ist offline aufgrund von Sicherheitslecks / Ihr habt immer eine gute Verbindung zu Gott' translates into English as 'studiVZ is offline because of security trouble / you always have a reliable connection to God'.

Thanks to Christian for the revised translation.
