Summary/Abstract: The comic is an increasingly significant presence of human manifestations, in a wide variety of poses, from fine humor to grotesque or even morbid humor. Highly valued throughout human civilization, it is enjoyed, blamed or neglected alike, constituting a defining part of the human condition. Given the ubiquity of the comic, it goes without saying if there is any connection between these and religions. In this study I propose to address the issue of Eastern Christian theology in relation to the comic, both in terms of Holy Scripture and church theology.
