It took me awhile to understand the top cartoon, but once I did, I thought it provided an interesting contrast.

The 2nd one, is it supposed to be a bachelor pad > what a MESS !

Funny.
Is that book pictured, "Comfortable Christianity," full of cartoons like this ?

I don't know but I don't think so. I suspect someone used it out of context for the meme.

Oh - do people do that ? You can tell I don't know anything about internet behavior patterns.

What is amusing about this cartoon is that it shows the typical American protestant/evangelical approach to the Savior. These are 100% SURE that they can pick up a phone and dial a number to reach their pal, Jesus.

They naively expect that Jesus is waiting on the other end of the line to receive all their requests, like a customer service representative -

If Jesus should be slow to address their problems, as in the picture, they register a complaint.
