A Cursory Scan

Comments are becoming so numerous on the "Coffee with Jesus" comics that we've stopped bothering to engage the people and have adopted the policy of "it's better not to know." Most of them are positive, we think, but a quick glance indicates that many of them are not; people getting offended, defensive, argumentative or just annoyed. And good or bad, it's better not to know. Too much praise goes to your head - too much ridicule and you start doubting yourself.

So now we are going to just make the comics and post them. If they get a bunch of likes and shares, we figure the balance is in our favor and we'll leave it at that. To monitor the dialog they create is not our business anymore. That they are creating dialog is cool, but for us to have to defend each and every comic against every argument against them - well, life's too short for that crap. Charles Schultz would've gone mad if he could've read everyone's thoughts, good or bad, on Charlie and Snoopy's latest exploits. 

And when we speak in the plural, we are talking about this pair of kids, who would prefer to keep some sense of childlike wonder intact rather than get bogged down in the angry noise so common online these days.
