At first glance, unholy, yes, but I argue that these three amazing books should be the HOLY trinity of Childrens Bibles. Shining a light on all the dark and forbidden nooks and crannies in the book that western civilization has worshiped for generations, Horus Gilgamesh and Agnes Tickheathen brilliantly show how disdainful and UN-holy our holy book really is. Yes, our Holy Bible looks innocent enough on the outside and our cherished and esteemed men and women of God have directed us to feast upon its sweets and comfort food, but isn’t is about time we really unearth what this group of men’s writings in paper and leather-bound form is really about? I think so.
When I first discovered the Awkward Moments volume 1, I laughed and bought several copies, only being bold enough to share them with fellow secularists. I was already on my journey to the truth, so as offensive at first glance as it was, it wasn’t the heart-attack inducer it may have been a few years prior. Having been indoctrinated from a very young age, I was a devout Bible believing Christian for years, and brought up my children that way. Why? Because I was told to. Afraid to question, I was! This is God and He is to be feared. Then lo and behold, along comes information in easy at-my-fingertips form. Not having to peruse libraries' card catalogs any longer, I could find out in record-time how the Bible came to be, how western civilization became Christian, how the New Testament was written. MIND BLOWN, BELIEFS QUESTIONED.
Volume 2 came along and was just as wonderful. The Awkward Moments series is a terrific way to educate yourself with hilarious adult cartoons, and who doesn’t love hilarious adult cartoons? In color too! Thank you, Agnes. And the commentary in the back is rich and powerful to say the least, and often very funny. Thank you, Horus.
History is happening right now and we are on Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. We have no idea what’s coming next. Never before have we had such mass information at our fingertips. Never before have we known so much about the rest of the world and our cosmos. And never before have we learned how much we don't know. Back in the 80’s and 90’s I was convinced I was going to be raptured by the year 2000. It ain’t happenin’! Before the human race extinguishes itself, arm yourself with information. Ask yourself: Am I brave enough to question what I believe? Am I brave enough to find out the truth? Can I handle the truth?
And volume #3 is just as great as the first two, if not better, if that’s possible; the commentary is more relevant than ever.
And the question looms: Am I ready to share it with my devout family and friends? When they start asking me questions, which funnily hasn't happened - yet. But I'll wait.

Awkward Moments is a Gift from Gods.
Horus has taken quotes from Bible, and without changing any of the words, simply added wonderful illustrations that- in and of themselves- have the ability to change a “believers“ paradigm, IF that person is willing and open to having intelligent dialogue about what they claim to be “the truth“. Having been born in America (specifically, the south) to parents that were raised by parents that practiced Christianity, because their parents did, as did their parents...I was undoubtedly raised to believe some white dude was in the cosmic neather regions of space watching EVERTHING I do all. the. time. And for somebstranger reason....caring about what I do.I believed what I was mentally fed, as do Scientologist kids, Muslim kids, Jehovah’s Witness kids, etc.Coming out as non-delusional has not been easy, but having resources like Awkward Moments has made it easy to explain to intelligent (though naive) believers that will listen with a logical and open mind partly how I’ve come to my conclusions.Awkward Moments comes at the information in a non-confrontational manner that helps folks feel they need not be in defense mode.The words are correct and verifiable and the illustrations just help the reader visualize what is really being said. Like REALLY being said. Out loud. They didn’t just say it. They wrote it down! And then believers today conveniently skip the parts that are bat$#!% crazy and claim all those parts (there are lots) are being “taken out of context”.Horus has filled a void in the world of non-theistic literature and will hopefully be recognized for this genius idea and amazing art and earn millions of dollars for his efforts. God willing! 😉
