Herb and Jamaal, 7/30/25

It seems like just yesterday that Herb stormed into Rev. Croom's office, declaring that he was ambivalent about believing in a creator God whom he couldn't perceive with his senses. In fact, it was 11 years ago, but I guess that's practically yesterday in newspaper comics terms, ha ha! Anyway, in the subsequent decade, it seems Herb has resolved his doubts by means of Pascal's wager, though I have to say that "liv[ing] in the netherworld" is a pretty tame euphemism for "experiencing eternal physical torment as a damned soul in hell," and maybe not really as motivating as he thinks.
