I read this as a "this is why we do not tolerate intolerance" message.

Finding out that it's a Christian comic is.... ironic.

Let me see if I understand:

 

Blue and red vase don't like each other and are about to fight

Red vase smashes blue vase, killing him. Man in the background sees.

Man is sad about red vase smashing blue vase, red vase doesn't care.

Man tells red vase he is trash if he keeps smashing other vases and being hateful, he's going in the trash, red vase doesn't care.

Man tells red vase he loves him, red vase doesn't care.

Red vase tells man he hates him and the blue vase.

Man smashes red vase.

Man puts red vase in the trash. In the background there's a picture of red, blue, and yellow vase, and a big picture of red vase (going by shape).

 

Did I miss anything?

Man tells red vase he is trash, red vase doesn’t care.

I think it's rather Man tells red vase that if it continues to smash other vases and doesn't behave in a friendly way, it will go into the trash.

Okay what the fuck
I liked this comic because it's just… super random humor and I kind of like such comics that are funny but don't really make sense

So then I go onto the website and… it's a Christian comics website? What the fuck?

I think its an allegory

Potter is God Pots are people

Pots kill pots, potter says if you keep doing that you will be thrown in the trash (hell). Red pot rejects the potter and embraces violence, thus the potter breaks (smites) the red pot and sends it to the trash.

Thats my understanding, but its also kinda simple and doesnt really need an allegory so it might be something else entirely that im missing?

No, that seems to be the entirety of it. Browsing through the author's other comics, they all seem to be paper thin messages touted as biblical gospel; you kinda are expected to read these comics like they're these deep and philosophical metaphors when the ultimate message is "don't steal or God will punish you". And they all have bible verses as captions underneath them. I mean, my thoughts on organized religion aside, it doesn't seem like a bad comic series, just a little too... I dunno, "common denominator"? There are a couple good comics there, like two friends playing video games, one of them keeps raging at the other one for being bad at the game, so the one bad at the game starts feeling really sad and finds a new friend to play video games with, leaving the first (angry) friend all by himself. The message there being, obviously, don't be a dick to your friends or they'll leave you. Again, not a bad message, just a bit, "well, duh."

There's also a comic where there's a toxic gas infesting a work site, which a worker pulls out a measuring tape and because he can't measure it, he concludes that there is no toxic gas. And then he dies. By the toxic gas, of course. That he couldn't measure with a measuring tape. Go ahead, guess what that's an allegory for. Don't worry, I know this is a hard one.

Ah yes, if gas leaks are undetectable but real and dangerous, then God must be real and dangerous too. Just trust me bro, have faith

"love must hate evil" apparently

it wasn't meant to be funny just some christian weirdo who makes simplistic comics

He had to wait for the red vase to double down?

What if red vase didn't include "i also hate you" and just hated blue vase
