==A-E==
* [[Abusive Parents]]: Most infamously in "[https://web.archive.org/web/20140725164811/http://www.fmh-child.org/Lisa.html Lisa]," but a running theme.
* [[Activist Fundamentalist Antics]]: In [[The Verse]] of Chick Tracts, a [[The Fundamentalist|real Christian]] would never resort to this kind of behavior. However, preachers of ''other'' faiths easily fall into this trope, [[Straw Loser|thus proving the Christians to be superior]].
* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Some funny parodies have been done of Chick Tracts. A few examples: [http://foo.ca/wp/chick-tract-satire/darkseid/ "Darkseid"], [http://foo.ca/wp/chick-tract-satire/who-will-be-eaten-first/ "Who Will Be Eaten First?"], and [http://foo.ca/wp/chick-tract-satire/galactus-is-coming/ "Galactus Is Coming!"].

* [[Redemption Equals Death]]: Tracts that involve people such as murderers finding redemption will often end with their death.

* [[Religion of Evil]]: Catholicism, [https://web.archive.org/web/20131029193956/http://www.chick.com/catalog/tractbykeyword.asp?subject=Catholicism mostly]. And [https://web.archive.org/web/20131029194003/http://www.chick.com/catalog/tractbykeyword.asp?subject=Islam Islam], [http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0016/0016_01.asp Buddhism], [http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0070/0070_01.asp Hinduism], Judaism,... heck, any other religion that is not Chick's particular brand of fundamentalist Protestant Christianity.
* [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent]]: One demon [http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1036/1036_01.asp looks exactly like a Frill-necked Lizard].
* [[Resuscitate the Dog]]: Eric leaves Ashley after she gets pregnant, but after seeing the error of his ways and accepting Jesus, races to stop her from getting the abortion, declaring that he's willing to stay with her now.
