PLACE OF ACCEPTANCE
Beetle Bailey’s buddy, Killer, bends down to pet Sarge’s dog, Otto. Otto growls at him. Next you see him in the General Halftrack’s office and he tries to touch Miss Buxley. Miss Buxley growls at him, too. Finally you see Killer walking in the compound with a hangdog expression on his face and he says, “The world is so full of rejection.” Unfortunately that’s true but not everywhere. Not in the Church. At least it’s not supposed to be in the Church. The Church is about acceptance and love. It is the place you run to when everyone else has rejected you and you stand alone. The Church is a place of acceptance and love, for everyone. From “Beetle Bailey,” by Mort Walker, April 30, 1991
