I used to read Bloom County all of the time back in the eighties. However since it came back I have only read it sporadically.
Still this panel seemed particularly appropriate about now.
Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Perhaps the inspiration for the Immoral Minority?
Somebody sent this Bloom County cartoon from 1981 to me the other day, and said they had stumbled upon it and were amused by the fact that it mentioned an Immoral Minority.
Well coincidentally this was one of my favorite strips back then as well.
However I forgot about this particular strip until I saw it again.
I have said many times in the past that the inspiration for the name of this blog was always in response to Jerry Falwell's Moral Majority, and that's true.
That being said it is also possible that this cartoon stuck in my subconscious for twenty three years and in 2004 when I started IM, there it was.
Well I can only hope to have the same positive impact on all of you, that Bloom County had on me way back when I was a fresh faced 21 year old kid.
