chick tract

In the anti Catholic tract "death cookie" chick makes the claim that IHS realy stands for Isis, Horus, and Set of the egyptian pantheon.: Bloodkith (talk) 22:05, 28 April 2011‎

Chick, a 20th century comic book writer "claims" something? How encyclopedic! History2007 (talk) 23:00, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That seems to me to be one of the clearest cases where Chick must have pretty much known he was lying (or proceeded with one-eye-closed reckless and malicious indifference to truth and falsehood).
