Proselytize Religion
From Reddit
As a community with an interest in providing the best resources to its members, the following wiki links are provided as historical reference until we can establish our own.
My favorite is the one about the evils of D&D. It ends with the protagonist literally entering a Warlock pact with Jesus as their Celestial patron, sealed with a ritual book burning.
Nice. My favorite is the college professor getting schooled by a Christian student. "Oho, you think quarks are real? You cannot even see them. The only force holding atoms together is the power of Jesus Christ."
I'd say I could feel damn well these subatomic forces when I stomped my little toe on the sharp angle of my furniture. They are way too tangible to be invisible forces
Have you seen the one called "Are Roman Catholics Christians?"
Or the one made entirely to shit on a lady in Bible study who dares question something about Christianity.
The entire series is blindly hypercritical of everything and has no idea it's a joke. It's incredible.
There's tracts on Muslims too.

So what the fuck was the point of that? You can try to accept Jesus, but if Satan comes in and god-blocks you, then kills you in an intentional train accident, you go to hell for eternity anyway?
How is that an endorsement of religion and of God's love? That's just bullshit.
Jack Chick had a very unusual understanding of Christianity. But I guess that's what happens when your holy text is incredibly vague.
This seems like an amazing concept, I did a quick search but couldn't find any already written description of using real-world religious figures as warlock patrons.
I also want to play with Buddha or Kim Il-Sung as a patron
