Deepest apologies for the vacation
Welcome back everyone! I see many faces I remember and tons more new to me! Welcome back veterans and glad to have you newbies!
My deepest apologies for the strip’s long vacation. To not get into much detail, thankfully my feet are back underneath me again and I’m hopefully in a place where I can create the strip on a regular basis again. Currently there is a (huge) void in the strip (from August 4th to November 3rd) – I will try to refill this with content, but I do not want to promise what I am unsure I can deliver. If I do, you’ll be the first to know!
In the Works - Oh My Gods! Hardcover
While it's not ready to be finalized yet, I wanted to let all you lovely fans know about a special project I am working on. I am going to create an Oh My Gods! Special Edition Hard Cover book of the first Five Years of the strip. It will be pretty! It will be fantastic! It will (sadly) also be very expensive! However, I know there will be at least one customer (me) and perhaps maybe more!
Just wanted to give you all a tease!
2000 Strips!
Wow, I can’t believe it’s been this long. I’ve officially now done 2000 strips. It doesn’t feel that long, and frankly, it’s kind of weird to think that I’ve created something 2000 times. In the end, though, I am very thankful to have such a great audience who has stuck with the strip for so long, and to have new readers each and every day! Here’s to the next 2000!
PS: If you missed the 2000th strip, check it out here
Year 4 Anthology NOW AVAILABLE!
Hot on the heels of the release of the Complete Year Three Anthology, the Forth Year anthology of the famed comic strip is now available!, and if your curious you can even take a look inside.
(Of course the first three years of anthologies are still available)
What People are Saying about Oh My Gods!
“This is some seriously clever occult humor! Hey, someone had to take the piss out of NeoPaganism. Leave it to Shivian Balaris to apply his observations and critiques in the form of entertaining comic art. For a lighthearted, fun, and educational perspective of our weird and Witchy ways, Oh My Gods! is the place to turn.”
Raven Digitalis, author of Shadow Magick Compendium & Goth Craft
Why not?
In a British census a few years back, Jedi Knight was actually classified as a bona fide religion! At least it's better than Republicanism.
COME TO THE DARKSIDE....we have cookies!
yup
it is also an official religion in the US and Finland as well

It's not an official
It's not an official religion in Finland. Even Wicca got denied the status of official religion here...
What? :O
Are you sure being Jedi is an official religion in Finland? (Any related links, please?) Because if it really is, this might be the push I need to finally overcome my lazyness and end my church membership, and with that, stop paying the chuch taxes. (Yes, in Finland, members of the national churh [Evangelical-Lutheran] actually pay *taxes* to the church.)

What's Wrong With That?
I've been known to cast a circle using a laser pointer as a wand. The moving spot clearly delineates the boundary.
When you really get down to
When you really get down to it the names don't matter, the concepts do, and wicca and neopaganism are trying to wrap their names around the concepts(which IS necesary, don't get me wrong) but if it resonates with you more, and it probably does, to think of the god as the light side(expansive and solar, not being sexist here) and the goddess as the dark side(contractive and lunar, etc.) cast circle with a toy lightsaber and call chi, psi, astral light or energy "the force" then it will probably work even better than whatever craft names or tradition you were using.(except the GD JK)
