Is Jack Chick on of the most brilliant authors that has ever lived?

Answer 1

No.

But his fiction is almost as good as Dan Brown's.

I'm sorry but I cannot take anything that Chick Publications says seriously.

If we were to believe all that Chick Publications claim then we would believe that the Catholic Church:
+ Started Islam
+ Instigated the American Civil War
+ Assassinated Abraham Lincoln
+ Formed the Ku Klux Klan
+ Was responsible for the Inquisition known as the WWII Jewish Holocaust
+ Keeps every Christian's name in a computer in order to make persecution easier
