Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Original sin is not a concept found in the Bible. That concept developed later. If you read Genesis, Adam and Eve got kicked out of the garden just for knowing good and Evil, with an implication that this was too close to godhood for God's liking
Later scholars interpreted this as an "original sin" that gets passed on to all humans but that isn't in the original text and even today Jews don't believe in original sin despite having the same scripture to work from.
