Dude steals from ATM

Dude repents

Dude turns himself in

Dude finds gratitude in the teachings of the holy book he is reading

Dude turned his life around and got stable job

Dude talks to partner in crime, saying they knew each other

The objective of the image is probably to say that religion saves a man from evil/breaking the law. Nothing else.

Ask a person with a larceny conviction under their belt which is more plausible: the existence of God or that they could ever get a job servicing ATMs with their record.

Then ask them if they're more likely to be hired for any job by a left-wing atheist or right-wing Christian.

Exactly, the last 2 panels wouldn't have happened. Freaking fluff piece..

Seriously. Getting any job with a criminal record is an incredible feat, but a bank letting someone who once robbed ATMs work as an ATM technician is so impossible it may as well be fantasy.
