Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Okay, so the difference between what I believe, and what you're saying I believe, is that I believe there are rules to how the mind works. You're saying if the mind were responsible for everything, then we would all have total control over our subjective worlds because a brain never did anything a consciousness didn't want. But I actually understand what psychology is, and that the conscious mind has its limits. Soulism is about gaining the tools to overcome those limits through hard work, not about instantly changing everything with wishes. Now, are you willing to accept the premise that the mind has limits, or are you going to continue along this assertion that soulism recognises no barriers to overcoming oppression?
