Main comic:
Caption (top): FUN FACT: A DECENT NUMBER OF BIBLICAL LITERALISTS HAVEN'T ACTUALLY READ THE BIBLE. THIS PRESENTS AN OPPORTUNITY:
A young man with red hair (left) to an older man with brown hair (right): "I mean, do you REALLY believe that Obadiah rode a 3-headed land-shark into battle against the Edomites?"
Older man (right): "I do sir, and you will not lead me astray."
Votey:
No text. A stark black-and-white landscape scene of a rocky shore or shoreline with simple sketchy shapes.

A single-panel comic. A yellow caption box at the top reads: "FUN FACT: A decent number of biblical literalists haven't actually read the Bible. This presents an opportunity:" Below, a young red-haired man on the left leans toward an older brown-haired man on the right and asks, "I mean, do you REALLY believe that Obadiah rode a 3-headed land-shark into battle against the Edomites?" The older man calmly points back and replies, "I do sir, and you will not lead me astray." The joke: the literalist's unwavering faith makes him affirm an absurd, completely invented Bible story rather than admit he hasn't read it. The votey (bonus panel) is a wordless rough black-and-white sketch of a rocky coastal landscape.
