Synopsis

Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 25: A Protestant Magazine for Armed Forces Personnel; December, 1967

Gospel According to Peanuts are Often interested in an example Of how such a book blends Peanuts with theology. There are two pri mary purposes Of the book: first, to illustrate some Of the main tenets Of the Christian faith by using Peanuts, while secondly, pointing out something in Peanuts that most people miss, namely the very subtle theological lessons that Schulz Often consciously weaves into the fabric Of the strip. I think one Of the best ways for you to discover these two purposes is to look at Schulz' cartoon based on Matthew 27. And SO there are lessons to be learned from Peanuts! But just as in the par ables Of our Lord, or in the parables Of other works Of art, we're not always quite sure - like Linus what these lessons are. My job then is Simply to point but some Of these lessons, to unshell. Peanuts, and perhaps to add a pinch Of salt of my own.
