Interesting concept, Josh. You are approaching basic human issues, but in some ways this is like a puzzle to anyone but the auther. So… to me, this is about creation/God/Bible, yeah? Red and Blue are man & woman and believe God created the Bible, but yellow is different and has difference concepts which shock the Red/Blue.
Yes, it is somewhat of a puzzle. This is because I’m attempting to tell a story without using any words at all.
What you read is close to how I intended it, but not exactly. However, I thank you for your comment, as it gives me input into how I might communicate my ideas better.
Seems to me, the blue one’s teaching evolution, and the red one’s teaching creation. The yellow one asks how they know, they both tell him books. The red one talks about how God created his scripture, and the blue one talks about how the archialogical record prompted scientific books. The yellow one suggests that maybe God created the first organism, then evolution took over. Both red and blu are surprised. Am I close?
I really do like your comics. They take a moment, but so far I think I’ve been able to figure them all out. They have a tone to them that is sad, but also a bit amusing in an ironic way. This one in particular inspired smoe wry laughter. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen that discussion happen, possibly even been part of it. What happens after depends on the people involved. I saw in the comments of another comic that some people have trouble seeing the shapes as people. I do not have this problem at all, but that may just be me. I tend to personify a lot of things, why should shapes be any different?
