At its heart, Pearls Before Swine is the comic strip tale of two friends: an arrogant Rat who thinks he knows it all and a slow-witted Pig who doesn't know any better. Together, this pair offers caustic commentary on humanity's quest for the unattainable. Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams says that Pearls is "one of the few comics that make me laugh out loud." The strip has twice won the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben division award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip – in 2003 and in 2006.

At least he has narrowed down his beliefs. I believe I will have another beer!

Rat just needs a mirror, and he’s all set for his worship service.

FYI, people, I have met a male missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints without hair; he’s diagnosed with alopecia (he was from Yakima, Washington… assigned to the Washington Tacoma Mission). Boy, am I grateful I wasn’t punched in my mission service by alcoholic anti-Mormons.

Atheism endorses subjective “morality”…Rat’s search is over.

@Ms. Ima
That expression has always annoyed me.
.
I know what it’s trying to say, but it doesn’t express the sentiment properly in my opinion.
.
To illustrate, substitute “prayer” for beer:
.
“A man’s got to believe in something. I believe I’ll have another prayer.”
.
I believe that sentiment would be better (and more simply) expressed this way:
.
“A man’s got to believe in something. I believe in beer.”

In beer there is truth. All beer has truth, and all truth has beer. In truth, we should all have a beer. Except for the wimps, they can have wine.

Don’t search for religion, search for God (even if you are already “His”). 2 Chronicles 7:14
Sorry, I don’t mean to evangelize. But every now and then I feel compelled to say something that just popped into my head.

There’s a seeker born every minute.
Rat won’t get to get what he’s after, till the day he dies.
