While taking a shower on Saturday, I had this thought: What if you combined the gentle humor of Family Circus with the hellfire Puritan preaching of the great 18th century American theologian Jonathan Edwards?
The answer, of course, is that you would end up with something very similar to this:
All quotes are taken directly from Edwards' famous sermon, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God."
The Family Circus comics are from ArcaMax.

"Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is a treasure trove of shocking language. I have additional fun with it here and here.

Honestly, I think it's a vast improvement on the Family Circus.
My grandma had these on her refrigerator when I was little. She was passive-aggressive that way.
The Nietzsche Family Circus does a similar thing:

The site pairs a randomized Family Circus cartoon with a randomized Friedrich Nietzsche quote.
