The folderol that appears on the comic page under the title "B.C." is at best humorless, unimaginative and trivial. All too often, the strip contains offensive religious claptrap, e.g. the July 31 strip. A number of national newspapers have discontinued "B.C." I with that The Advocate would join those newspapers and discontinue "B.C." If The Advocate must continue this strip, at least place it in the Saturday Religion section, where is rightfully belongs. Long ago, "Doonesbury" was relegated to the Opinion section of the newspaper because it was considered too politically oriented. "B.C." is too religiously oriented. Please drop it or move it elsewhere.
