Strippers Protest Church
Warsaw, Ohio, just got way more interesting than it has any right to be: A local strip club recently launched an all-out offensive against the town menace, the New Beginnings Ministries Church.
Sources say that for the past four years Pastor Bill Dunfee has been harassing Tommy George and his Foxhole strip joint. What's worse is that Dunfee and his ilk are a full seven country miles from the private business, yet bother to show up every weekend to block traffic, take photos of customers' license plates to upload to their shaming site and just generally condemn and insult George.
"Tom George is a parasite, a man without judgment," Dunfee told the local press. "The word of Jesus Christ says you cannot share territory with the devil."
What happened to love thy neighbor, pastor? George himself believes in an eye for an eye, so he set up shop outside the church on days of worship -- with his strippers in tow.
Gina Hughes, one of the less typical exotic dancers, is married with six little ones, says she makes $2,000 a week and complained of being called a "homewrecker and a whore" -- neither of which she actually is. She agrees with George that the goons at New Beginnings are hypocrites, and their offers of "salvation" are not wanted.
So, she and the other girls set up their lawn chairs in front of the church carrying signs bearing slogans about Pastor Dunfee -- although they have stopped short of insulting and humiliating the churchgoers. Instead, they sit there in bikinis and eat hamburgers while Church is in session. See Chick's THE OUTCAST.

Chickcomics,
It might be beneficial to include the link to the original Columbus Dispatch article about this story:

You mentioned the Chick tract “The Outcast.” (It is available here:
http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/5008/5008_01.asp )
Do you think there is any similarity to the message of the tract and the following excerpt from the Dispatch’s article?:
Dunfee […] said he consistently offers the women help, a chance at redemption.
"I tell them, 'I will put a roof over your heads, and your bills will be paid, and your children's bellies will be full,'" he said.
